Details

Hip-Hop Architecture is a design movement that embodies the collective creative energies that gave rise to hip-hop music. Its designers produce spaces, buildings, and environments that translate hip-hop’s energy and spirit into built form.

MODA's current exhibition, Close to the Edge: The Birth of Hip-Hop Architecture, includes work by 34 participants from across the globe. Their projects include experimental visualizations, installations, façade studies, building designs, and urban development proposals.

These projects, created over the past 25 years, are part of an emerging canon of Hip-Hop Architecture.

On Saturday, December 17th, join us at MODA for an out-of-the-box guided tour of Close to the Edge. Tickets are $15.00 (or $5.00 for members) and include exhibition admission. Attendance is limited, so we recommend registering in advance.
