Genius Baseball Cap

Description

When you know, you know.

This FWM exclusive, special edition baseball cap was created on the occasion of Jayson Musson’s 2022 solo exhibition His History of Art.

His History of Art is a three-channel video series written, starred, and co-directed by Jayson Musson and inspired by PBS-style educational children’s shows. Through sitcom-esque film structure, Musson and his puppet co-host Ollie the rabbit conduct a satirical survey on art history, its relationship to the general public and the ways in which popular art historical images impact our cultural consciousness.

This baseball cap also subtly alludes to Jayson Musson’s ART THOUGHTZa series of Youtube performances created between 2010 and 2012.

Jayson Musson, in collaboration with The Fabric Workshop and Museum, Philadelphia.

Dark grey snapback with hot pink embroidered letters reading “GENIUS” on the front. The back reads "FWM x Musson"

Cap size is adjustable, 5 inches tall with a 2.75 inch brim
Edition of 60

Meet The Artist

Jayson Musson

Jayson Musson is a multi-disciplinary artist whose incisive and often satirical use of materials and media exposes elite attitudes and inequities in both art history and in contemporary culture. His three-part sitcom, His History of Art, employed the use of costumes, puppetry, and set designs.

About The Exhibition

A man and a large rabbit puppet give a hearty laugh with their hands on their chests. The man is wearing a burgundy corduroy suit with a yellow turtleneck. He has thick dark curly hair that blends in with his beard. The rabbit puppet is grey with stringy fur, a round sky blue eyeball, a pink nose, and green at the center of its tall ears.

His History of Art

July 22, 2022–December 31, 2022

Utilizing costuming, props, puppetry, and scenery created in collaboration with the FWM studio team, His History of Art debuts a new three-channel video series written, starred, and co-directed by Musson, who describes it as “a sitcom orbiting art history and all the fun to be had dancing on the minefield of the past.”
