{Personal Post} PHOTOS: "Black Cowboy: American Muscle" by. Brandon Hill Opening Reception


Washington D.C. based artist, Brandon Hill, held an opening ceremony to debut his new exhibition "Black Cowboy: American Muscle".  It examines the significance of Black Cowboys in the American West, shedding light on the often neglected contribution.  Visitors can expect an immersive exploration through paintings, sculptures, and video.  From the art to the ongoing DJ set to the themed outfits, this ceremony was a prime vibe.  Check it out through my lens:

Rule #1... get the money first.  Rule #2, don't forget to get the money.  Word to Dolph.

There was a western film playing through a projector on the upper level.

Good ol D.C traffic.


A fantastic evening well spent.
