In a dynamic collision of the traditional and the contemporary, Uncovered: A Pageant of Hip Hop Masters will recreate through the use of the tableau vivant life-sized versions of classic album covers from several hip hop artists including: Run DMC, Queen Latifah, LL Cool J and Salt and Pepa. This recreation will be accompanied by a DJ’s mix of songs from each album as well as dances that were popular during the album’s release. Organized by UCR Sweeney Art Gallery and curated by UCR Theatre department associate professor Rickerby Hinds with community members and UCR students. Public performances will be presented in late July and early August.
