Join the MIT List Visual Arts Center on a public art walking tour of MIT’s central campus through the lens of Lupe Fiasco’s recent project, GHOTIING.
Listen to Lupe Fiasco’s most recent project, GHOTIING, while touring select artworks in the MIT List Visual Arts Center public art collection like that of Alexander Calder’s La Grande Voile [The Big Sail] and Antony Gormley’s Chord.
A collaboration with the MIT List Visual Arts Center, GHOTIING MIT: Public Art is a site-specific rap and field recording project that explores the relationship between rap and MIT’s public art collection. By composing and recording on-site, Lupe engages directly with the sculptures, murals, and installations across campus, using their forms, histories, and surroundings as creative catalysts. Capturing ambient sounds and crafting lyrics in response to each piece, the project transforms public art into a living sonic experience—where rap and visual art intersect in real time.
This program is weather dependent. Registered attendees will receive an email the day before the tour date if needed to cancel due to weather conditions.
