Brooklyn Public Library presented The Book of HOV, an installation created by Roc Nation to celebrate the life and work of Shawn “JAY-Z” Carter. One of Brooklyn's most influential figures, JAY-Z has shaped and consistently redefined hip-hop, music and culture on a global scale. The Book of HOV featured never-before-seen images, art and ephemera from the artist's archives, providing an unparalleled look at an extraordinary life and career. This free, immersive experience was one of the only installations of its scope to be housed in an active public space and featured text, audio and curation by Roc Nation teams and partners.
The exhibition, spread throughout two floors of Central Library, immersed visitors as soon as they walked through the doors. Learn more about each experience in the exhibit at thebookofhov.com
