About the event
GOLDEN
Step into the heart of the “Golden Era” — a time when 90s Hip-Hop wasn’t just music, but a movement. GOLDEN offers an intimate, powerful look at the culture that shaped a generation, through rare and never-before-seen photographs by legendary image-makers.
From iconic album cover sessions by Danny Hastings, to raw, personal portraits captured by T. Eric Monroe; from behind-the-scenes candids by Erik Elijah Brumfield, to in-the-moment energy by Koi Sojer — this exhibition reveals Hip-Hop at its most unfiltered, untamed, and unforgettable.
Before the internet. Before the algorithms. When the lens was the only witness.
