Baltimore-based musician and Wham City alum Dan Deacon brings his high-energy electro-pop show to the Hirshhorn’s last After Hours of the year. With a tabletop full of eclectic gizmos, a sine wave generator, a makeshift light board, and a green skull strobe light, Deacon mixes dance anthems, intricate instrumentals, and humorous monologues to create an all-out dance-til-you-drop experience. Spin magazine calls him a “one-man A/V club party” who makes “low-budget electronic pop that’s as bizarre as it is uproarious.”
The party continues until midnight with DJ Gavin Holland of the local dance party Nouveau Riche.
Be among the first to see the new exhibition The Panza Collection, a collection of thirty-nine Conceptual works by important artists from the 1960s and 70s recently acquired by the Hirshhorn.
And don’t miss the new project on the third floor, Directions: Terence Gower, Public Spirit, a research-based, multimedia art installation that explores a little-known chapter in the history of the Hirshhorn.
