## Description

A sweeping survey of hip hop’s resounding impact on contemporary art and culture across the past 20-plus years Accompanying a groundbreaking exhibition originating at the Baltimore Museum of Art, this book captures the extraordinary influence of hip hop, which has driven innovations in music, visual and performing arts, fashion, and technology and grown into a global phenomenon since its emergence in the 1970s. It features approximately 70 objects by both established and emerging artists, design houses, streetwear icons and musicians working in a wide range of mediums to demonstrate hip hop’s proliferation from the street to the runway, the studio to the museum gallery, and countless sites in between. The exhibition also explores how hip hop has and continues to challenge structures of power, dominant cultural narratives, and political and social systems of oppression. This fully illustrated monograph documents the exhibition and contains texts and interviews from more than 30 artists and scholars. Artists include : Nina Chanel Abney, Dionne Alexander, Maxwell Alexandre, Devin Allen, Alvaro Barrington, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Grace Wales Bonner, Mark Bradford, Jordan Casteel, Willy Chavarria, Caitlin Cherry, Troy Chew II, William Cordova, Carl Jones, Stan Douglas, John Edmonds, Gajin Fujita, Monica Ikegwu, Shabez Jamal, Kahlil Joseph, Nia June, LA II, Deana Lawson, Eric N.

Review: Good Detailed Book - A good coffee table book.
Review: It's okay - The product arrived in great condition brand new. I went to the exhibition in St. Louis and it was STUNNING! The book? This book is not well done. It's too much. It's like they tried to cram all this information in but I would have preferred that it be more about the exhibit. That is in there but it's mixed in with all this other stuff no one asked for.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Detailed Book

A good coffee table book.

### ⭐⭐ It's okay

### ⭐ Good Book But Poorly Designed
*by J***D on November 14, 2024*

I really do like this read. I’ve been using this book as a part of my coffee table collection and have only opened this book 3 times. When I opened the packaging, the spine looked like it wouldn’t hold, but then I thought that the publisher may have used a strong adhesive. Last night, the entire cover came off… super disappointed.
