The Vesper project opens today at the Friedman Benda gallery in the Chelsea neighborhood of New York. It is a spooky installation of artist Titus Kaphar that weaves personal stories of his family, historical context, found objects and distorted photographs.
It was intended to be an experiential artwork presentation. Viewers will explore abandoned wardrobes, old typewriters, gilt frames but altered to cause doubt and alter recognition. Think of it as a very high brow haunted house of an artist's personal story... For more information, cehck out the gallery website: http://www.friedmanbenda.com/
