At the center of the exhibition was Brandon Foushée's TEMPO series, curated by Good Black Art into two distinct shows, Entropy and Pacing. Each body of work turned sound into image, layering time, place, and memory the way a musician samples a beat or a vintner captures terroir in a bottle.
Entropy, shown in the Grand Salon Renaissance of Château du Clos de Vougeot, transformed New York City subway surfaces into visual history. Weathered posters, graffiti, and soot built up like layers of sound, revealing a raw beauty that echoed how wine deepens with age.
Pacing captured fleeting subway moments, quick, performative snapshots taken every five minutes during Brandon Foushée's daily commute. Worn floors, colored tiles, and low ceilings traced movement and time, mirroring the patina of the château itself. The work drew on the sampling techniques of hip-hop artists like Earl Sweatshirt, MIKE, E L U C I D, and Mach-Hommy, assembling fragments of city life into visual rhythm, with echoes of Henri Cartier-Bresson's Decisive Moment.
Limited-edition prints from Entropy and Pacing remain available through Good Black Art.
