The Mural Project: Co-Sign

Описание: Rob “Problak” Gibbs and Rob Stull, artists-in-residence at the MFA, live and breathe hip-hop. Created by Beyond MEASURE Productions, this documentary captures the artists’ insights into creative expression in the street art community, their influences and artistic beginnings, and the core missions of graffiti art. Gibbs and Stull collaborated with local youth for “The Mural Project,” a multipart venture with the MFA inspired by “Writing the Future: Basquiat and the Hip-Hop Generation.” They discuss how their partnership with the Museum—their “co-sign”—bolsters their ability to inspire and inform future generations.
