The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota, FL will be running an exhibit this summer celebrating hip-hop culture. “Beyond Bling: Voices of Hip-Hop in Art” will feature contemporary works that have managed to incorporate marked influences from hip-hop and street culture in order to address the question of “what it means to speak with a historically urban voice in this age of advanced globalization.” The exhibit will include works from artists Michael Anderson, Iona Rozeal Brown, Vince Fraser, Gajin Fujita, Luis Gispert, Sofia Maldonado, Nadine Robinson, Mickalene Thomas, Hank Willis Thomas, and Kehinde Wiley. Visitors are eligible to receive discounted admission every thursday 5pm–8pm: $10 adults / $5 children 17 and under. Exhibit will run until August 14th.
