There are only three weeks left to enjoy the clusterfunk of art and music that is MoMA PS1’s Warm Up 2015 series, which has thus far included Tiga sets and Big Data art, performances by Baauer and Skepta, and even a pack of ancient puppets.Time’s a-ticking, and tomorrow’s lineup features Nick Hook, Veronica Vasicka, Vessel, Ninos Du Brasil, Cut Hands, French Fries playing back to back with Bambounou. In addition to a great lineup, you can also check out Jos de Gruyter and Harald Thys’ series Fine Arts, a collection of 15 steel sculptures, several video installations, and around 80 watercolor paintings. The mission of Fine Arts is to be “deadpan,” according to the work’s press release, meaning “funny and blank at the same time.”See what you think of some images of the work below, or see them for yourself tomorrow.Click here to learn more about MoMA PS1's Warm Up 2015.Related:Watercolor Warboys Rampage Through a Rotoscoped Mad Max TributeDrift into the Weekend with These Surreal Floating IslandsDon't Touch the Beehive Sculpture at MoMA
