Art Reception


An Intimate Conversation on Art,
Culture & Legacy with George Clinton

Curated by Franklin Sirmans, Executive Director, Perez Art Museum Miami


Recording as both Parliament and Funkadelic, George Clinton revolutionized popular music during the ‘70s and ‘80s.

From the names of his songs to the edgy customs of he and his band, George has always been an “artist”.

As a visual artist, Clinton’s body of work is as adventurous, colorful and eclectic as his music. The fact that he has been colorblind all his life makes his
works and story that much more compelling

Hear, in person HIS STORY in the making!
