ROCOCO: The Hearing:
KC Rosenberg and Modesto Covarrubias
When: Fri., Sept. 1, 6-9 p.m. 2017 Price: Free
The installation The Hearing by RoCoCo was created with a clear acknowledgement of recent events in American politics, journalism, and culture. The work considers the operative root word “hear” and questions whether its definition still holds true for the systems that bind these facets of American society. Is there an action of hearing taking place, or has it been co-opted and twisted so that the system is more about silencing and obscuring fact, ethics, and even morals?
