Public Image Enemy - 
Sep 15 to Nov 10 2006

Public Image Enemy is a multidisciplinary celebration featuring artwork, performance, and music which results from the collision and collaboration of  Punk Rock and Hip Hop artists.

The art and music, performance, etc. will be a celebration of the 30th anniversaries of punk rock and hip hop cultures.
(We are using these terms in the broad sense, including the sub-genres and side-genres)

We will focus on the places where the two cultures borrow from eachother and / or collaborate with each other. We are interested in hip hop artists that are influenced by punk and punk artists that are influenced by hip hop. Regardless of how much stylistic crossover there is, we are most excited about bringing the two cultures together in one forum.
Artists from each camp who don't normally work with each other have already started collaborating in preparation for this series.

Art - the art will feature graffiti art, stencil art, silkscreen art on the walls and on paper - bringing together works from the punk/ experimental/ underground rock communities and the hip-hop/ urban art-forms communities.

Music & Performance -  bringing together breaking, punk/ experimental/ underground music groups, emcees, deejays, beat-boxers, performance art, and more.
