Meet the artist turning Venezuelan protest music into art

Nadia Hernández, a Venezuelan-born artist now based in Melbourne, has created a multidisciplinary installation titled "Para verte mejor, en todo tiempo" (To see you better, at all times) currently on view at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. The work traces the history of Venezuelan protest music, incorporating a textile collage, a soundscape, and a site-specific mural. Hernández, who won the Grace Cossington Smith Art Award in 2021 and was a finalist for the Ramsay Art Prize and Sulman Prize in 2023, began this project two years ago as an evolving archive of protest songs, building on earlier iterations shown at the Oslo Freedom Forum, TarraWarra Biennial, and Art Basel Hong Kong.

New exhibit at Museum of Contemporary Art explores reggaetón and dancehall as forms of protest

The Museum of Contemporary Art has opened a new exhibition titled 'Dancing the Revolution: From Dancehall to Reggaetón.' The show features works by 42 contemporary artists, including paintings, sound sculptures, and interactive installations like a karaoke machine, examining the social, political, and spiritual histories of these musical genres. It was inspired by the 2019 protests in Puerto Rico, where reggaetón music and dance became a central form of protest and celebration.
