NTS X HVW8 – Brave New Waves

Square - Brave New Views
HVW8 Gallery and NTS present a new series exploring the relationship between art and music. Each installment of the series will feature an art exhibition & opening event together with musical performances for broadcast and artist interview podcasts.

The inaugural exhibit opens July 19th at HVW8 Los Angeles, featuring:

🗯 Ross Schwartzman, a.k.a Ross One’s installation exploring music consumption and identity via personal sound systems, comprising a wall of over 30 vintage boom boxes.

🗯 Charlie Ahearn‘s Doin’ Time In Times Square, a home movie “capturing the old capital of sleaze in all its pathetic glory”, filmed in part during the production of Ahearn’s classic 1983 hip hop film Wild Style.

🗯 LA filmmaker Calmatic and Steven Traylor‘s video and art installations, questioning the means of how we consume music, media, and technology – including their music video for Vince Staple’s FUN!, shot from the perspective of an interactive Google maps session.

The opening event will feature musical performances from Budgie & Battlecat as well as a DJ set from Ross One, recorded and streamed on NTS Radio platforms worldwide.

HVW8 x Ahearn

This tee marks the beginning of HVW8’s collaboration work with legendary writer/director Charlie Ahearn.

Ahearn may be best known for his film Wildstyle, a documentary known worldwide as one of the first film releases to showcase 80’s hip hop culture in it’s rawest form. Wildstyle and Ahearn really need no introduction for those schooled in New York history and original hip hop. HVW8 is working with Charlie to hand pick exclusive images from his photo archives for future releases. Stay tuned for more.
