Inspired by Mr. Tankian’s 2024 memoir Down with the System, this immersive exhibition highlights the intersections of music, painting, and protest that define his work. Best known as the frontman of the Grammy Award-winning rock band System Of A Down, Tankian has also emerged as a powerful visual artist and advocate for social justice, genocide recognition, environmental protection, and Armenian cultural identity.
