Shanzhai Biennial: MoMA PS1
Beastie Boys’ cover art, 1927 London on film, the $325,000 burger and more in our weekly look at the web
Summer in NYC means Sundays at MoMA’s PS1. Be sure not to miss this multi-genre project from New York’s art trio du jour, Shanzhai Biennial. Taking a subversive approach to luxury branding and bootlegs, their PS1 project features Chinese model Wu Ting Ting lip-syncing a copyright-circumventing version of Sinead O’Connor’s “Nothing Compares 2 U” in an overtly branded dress laden with misspellings. Look out for more industry-shaking pieces from Shanzhai Biennial in the coming months.
