Art-Hop is a new art movement coined by Taurean in 2008. In this movement, it is the intersection of Art History and hip-hop culture expressed in various ways or styles

Style #1 called Art Chops, is where the works created have references, riffs, and elements of known famous works of art in from the canon of western art or other established art movements in history. Just as producers sample old rock records and create a beat by referencing drums or sounds in a loop, Taurean creates art in that same fashion in visual form. Style #2 is called Art-Cing where the works are visual interpretations of hip hop songs or inspired by hip hop music. Viewers will notice there will be text or lyrics referencing hip hop or cultural references throughout the work. This exhibition is comprised of 12 works ranging in subject matter such as pop culture, religion, politics, sex, religion, and culture from the African American community. Style#3 is called Art-Hop Headz are portraits whether drawn or painted that pay homage to hip hop musicians, producers, or figures in hip hop history and culture. Style #4 is called Spitting Images and are hip hop songs made that have lyrics filled with fine art or art history terminology and concepts. Art-Hop the visual mixtape will arrive early summer 2024 on www.cr8ntv.com
