“Concerts are pretty much performance art,” explains Jay, who shot a video for “Holy Grail” with Justin Timberlake in L.A. this week. “In a smaller venue, it’s a bit more intimate so you feel the energy of the people.”
Jay attempted to pique his fans interest in the performing arts by dropping the new visual for, “Picasso Baby: A Performance Art Film.” The video, set in an all-white space at Milk Studios, collided the art, music and film worlds by including cameos from Fab Five Freddy, Rosie Perez, “Macbeth” actor Alan Cumming, the cast of “Girls”, Taraji P. Henson, Wale, fashion designer Cynthia Rowley and visual artist, Marina Abramovic. Marina says that she and Jay hope that the film will inspire his fans to google and learn more about what the performing arts are.
