Experience the special exhibition Jeffrey Gibson: the space in which to place me after hours and groove to the beat between two performance stages on two levels of the museum. With musicians selected to compliment Gibson’s vibrant artworks and converse with his powerful themes, PAST + FUTURE = PRESENT, Pt. 1 features Snotty Nose Rez Kids, the raucous and upbeat Haisla hip hop duo, and Black Belt Eagle Scout, the introspective and cinematic Swinomish/Iñupiaq indie rocker, both on the lobby stage. Upstairs in Oculus Hall, renowned electronic musician Jlin debuts a series of three collaborative compositions featuring recordings made by Navajo/Diné musician Glen Begay and the Bearspring singers, specially commissioned for the evening by The Broad. Footwork musician DJ Noir sets the tone for the evening with an opening set. Beverages and snacks are available for purchase outside in East West Bank Plaza. PAST + FUTURE = PRESENT, Pt. 1 and Pt. 2 feature a thoughtfully selected lineup of musicians who have made their mark on the club, concert, and tour circuits within the past decade, channeling a liberatory future through music and powerful performances that honor culture and ancestry. Throughout the two-part festival-style series, hip hop, experimental, pow wow, indie, electronic, and soul music coexist like the vibrant and inspirational words and colors in Jeffrey Gibson’s PAST + FUTURE = PRESENT (2024) and other artworks on view in his exhibition.
