Opening Reception for Hprizm & Yehwan Song

Join Pioneer Works in a public opening celebration of Hprizm: Sound of the City and Yehwan Song: Are We Still (Surfing)?.

Sound of the City is an immersive audio installation by artist and composer Hprizm. Rooted in the creative subcultures of the Lower East Side, Hprizm’s practice spans a wide array of genres, including music, performance and multimedia installations. He is a co-founder of the seminal hip hop group Antipop Consortium, an experimental collective known for their lyrical approach to electronic music.

Are We Still (Surfing)? is the first institutional solo exhibition by Yehwan Song, a PW resident alum known for creating websites which critically reshape the ‘user-friendly,’ yet ultimately hostile, interfaces that have overtaken the internet at the expense of genuine agency or freedom.

Hprizm: Sound of the City is organized by Material. Yehwan Song: Are We Still Surfing? is curated by Gabriel Florenz. The exhibitions are made possible, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in Partnership with the City Council, as well as the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.
