Hennessy Youngman

Hennessy Youngman and the self reflective satire of identity based performative art; and the contemporary art scene at large. . .




Hennessy Youngman is the adopted persona of Jayson Musson.  Musson has received a BFA in photography and his MFA in painting.   Musson was also a member of the Philly hip-hop group, Plastic Little, and is sampled in that 2013 "Harlem Shake" fad.




These videos which Musson started in 2010, became very popular with art students and the Youngman persona has been asked to curate exhibitions and give public lectures.
