    The performance, VB63/VBKW, took place on 14 October 2008 at the Ace Gallery in Los Angeles on the occasion of a listening party for Kanye West’s album 808s & Heartbreak. Forty models were arranged with the darkest skin tones in the foreground to lighter skin in the background in the shape of a heart. The models stood in a gallery space as all 11 tracks of the album were played while vibrant colours slowly alternated in the space behind them. Recently Beecroft art-directed West’s landmark 34-minute music video Runaway.
