BSA Special Feature: Highlights of Layer Cake Opening “Versus III” at Museum of Graffiti, Miami
“Versus III” opened last night to a lively crowd of graffiti and street art, and contemporary art enthusiasts who roamed the museum freely, taking in the new 10-piece exhibition as well as the permanent installations throughout. The contrast between the very educational, historical exhibition and the days-old one just installed by the Munich-based artist duo called Layer Cake was not as pronounced as you may think due to the conscious attention in the museum’s wall text descriptions that recognized the fluid nature of urban arts evolution throughout the last 5+ decades.
Today we have a collection of video outtakes featuring Christian Hundertmark and Patrick Hartl giving verbal descriptions of their process on specific canvasses, selected outtakes from the panel discussion with the museum director, writer, historian, and graffiti encyclopedia Alan Ket and Urban Nation Museums’ Steven P. Harrington before invited guests and 360-degree views of the incredible actual layer cake just before it was cut and served by the artists.
Our special thanks to Alan Ket and co-founder Allison Freidin as our excellent hosts at the Museum of Graffiti and the whole MOG team who were so professional and helpful to us, including but not limited to Alexi, Caroline, David, Caleb, and Jamie. Thank you to all.
