SFMOMA blog - Collection Rotation

The SFMOMA blog Open Space posted their first installment of a new monthly feature called “Collection Rotation”.

Bay Area artists Scott Hewicker and Cliff Hengst, who are also musicians, record collectors, and DJs, were asked to select works from the permanent collection of the SFMOMA and pair them with song clips. Each month another local guest will remix the permanent collection.

The results are pretty successful, and add another layer of dimension to both the paintings & the songs.

The above work by Chris Johanson, Untitled (Figures With Black Shape), 2002 was paired with Flipper’s “Ha Ha Ha”, from Blowin’ Chunks: Live at CBGB’s, Roir, 1984.
