Moving Image brings more than 300 music videos to its exhibition halls for this survey on the song-length films. Curated by Jonathan Wells and Meg Grey Wells of creative design company Flux and organized by the Contemporary Arts Center, Cincinnati, the show includes original drawings from A-ha’s “Take On Me,” paint-covered jumpsuits from OK Go’s “This Too Shall Pass,” and a section covering pioneering TV programs such as Yo! MTV Raps and the still-running Video Music Box. Look for a lineup of special events, including screenings, Q&As and workshops, to accompany the exhibit.
