OMF, this is amazing.
[Okay, okay, before we get into this, you need to know that I am a Kanye West fan – but understand this: while I don’t dig his cray Twitter rants or rude, but valid outbursts, I appreciate his mind and can empathise where he comes from.]
Anyways, let’s get back to the story:
Yesterday, a pop-up exhibition opened in LA, titled “Kanye Loves Kanye”.
It was a stocked with art pieces created by 50 artists focusing on one theme: Kanye.
Duh.
This, from The Daily Beast:
In Kanye Loves Kanye, visitors are invited to enter a sacred space of Kanye-worship to either spiritually commune with or just gawk at images of Yeezy, as interpreted by dozens of different artists.
So what will be going on in the space? You would never guess:
“The viewer will walk into a space, incense burning, Tibetan monk music playing in the background to create this religious experience,” creator-curator Matty Mo told The Daily Beast. The L.A.-based artist behind the viral “Selfie” mural in Venice and The Springs polka dots, who goes by the moniker The Most Famous Artist, grinned as he described what was in store for the curious who catch the show timed to coincide with West’s Los Angeles Life of Pablo tour stops this week.
I wonder why the soft sounds of Kanye won’t be playing. Hmmm.
“Yeezus is laid at your feet and viewers will enter one or two at a time so that it becomes a sort of sanctuary,” he said. “What will also start to happen as a result of that is a long line will start to form, which is very much Kanye West, creating this idea of waiting—of anticipation.”
Here’s a selection of what will be on offer:
Okay, now I don’t love Kanye enough to make an art piece, rather just enough to buy a bomber jacket. 😉
