Featuring 15 artists, researchers, musicians, and technologists, the exhibition examines hip-hop culture’s futuristic roots and the ways it remixes and reimagines itself across analog and digital terrains. Hand-drawn comics, digital archives, and cutting-edge augmented and virtual reality are deployed to explore hip-hop’s role as a force for transformation and liberation, explains Martha Diaz, a hip-hop historian who curates the exhibition with Gallatin Galleries Director Keith Miller.
As the United States turns 250, the Speculative Futures series looks ahead, spotlighting artists, poets, scholars, and storytellers who imagine what comes next. Through programs celebrating Black History, Women’s History, AAPI Heritage, Hispanic Heritage, and Native American Heritage Months, the series asks how visionary narratives can reimagine identity, justice, and possibility in America’s next chapter.
