Jeffrey Deitch invites you to a very special spoken word performance by funk legend George Clinton on stage designed by LA artist Lauren Halsey in celebration of his exhibition "The Rhythm of Vision" on view at Deitch's 7000 Santa Monica gallery in West Hollywood.
George Clinton is renowned as one of the pioneers of funk music. His Afro-Futurist performances, his lyrical mythology, and his social commentary have profoundly influenced contemporary culture. Clinton has been creating a lexicon of funk which is visualized in his paintings.
Lauren Halsey is collaborating on the exhibition by creating a sculptural stage inspired by George Clinton’s music. The work is a homage to Clinton’s influence on her artistic vision.
