Phillip Pyle, II: Wave Check

On Saturday, October 12, 3PM HMAAC presents “Wave Check/ 100” with Phillip Pyle, II, in collaboration with the 2024 Texas Biennial. This engaging performance is part of Pyle’s mid-career exhibition “So Far So Good” which ends on October 12. Pyle is one of 80 artists selected for the 2024 Texas Biennial and HMAAC is a presenting venue for the show.

The Biennial was curated by Erika Mei Chua Holum, the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Assistant Curator at the Blaffer Art Museum, Ashley DeHoyos Sauder, curator at Diverse Works, and Coka Treviño, the Founder and Curator of The Projecto, and Artistic Director at Big Medium. A solo museum exhibition from artist Phillip Pyle, II. "So Far So Good" is a survey of the artist's work over the past 12 years. "Pyle is a visual artist, graphic designer, and photographer based in Houston whose primary interests are race, humor, advertising, sports, and popular culture. Mining imagery from sources diverse as mass consumer culture, contemporary advertising, to ephemera, historic imagery, and hip-hop, Pyle, introduces a complex vision that derives from a strong comedic foundation while also looking at the abstraction and transience of our values, and beliefs."

Performance and Reception presented by the Houston Museum of African American Culture
