• Kanye Produces Art Exhibit Film

    Friday Mar 6 11:03 AM CST posted by xxl staff


    Known for his eclectic taste in the arts Kanye West is set to break into the film world with a movie based on the work of Italian artist Vanessa Beecroft.

    Ye and Beecroft previously worked together for Kanye’s rather unique 808s and Heartbreak listening party which involved 40 nude women with face mask and illuminating fluorescent light.

    Now according to the Villiage Voice, Ye will be producing the filming for Beecroft’s performance art show in New York this week. Recognized for her controversial exhibits of nude women in strange settings, Beecroft’s free show will be taking place tonight (March 6) at Deitch Projects in Long Island City at 7 p.m. – Evanka Williamson

    I admit to being a geek. I’d actually wouldn’t mind seeing some abstract art. Never been to the exhibitions in New York before. The ones in D.C. if anybody’s interested, are usually pretty good.

    ahhh.. the ignorance in the comments section is staggering..

    ron mexico should do a “nigga please” about some of the dumber comments made on this site. educate some people.

    producing a film makes you gay?

    nigga, i would produce a film about gay sex if it brought in the stacks. producers have nothing to do with the creative process… at least not since the ’50s. they just hire personnel and oversee financial concerns.

    not to mention, appreciating art isn’t homo.
