Sara Greenberger Rafferty: Gloves Off

Audience

Keywords

Bringing together recent video, sculpture, and photography, Sara Greenberger Rafferty furthers her ongoing fascination with domesticity, the body, consumer culture, fashion, violence, and stand-up comedy in a kaleidoscopic view of contemporary culture on the edge. The boxing term “gloves off”—frequently used as a metaphor to characterize brutal political campaigns and post-9/11 military interrogation—aptly describes the subtle aggressions in American popular culture Rafferty lays bare. The exhibition features installations on walls and floors, a new video and multiple works, including one measuring 20 feet long, consisting of prints on acetate, painted and mounted on hand-cut Plexiglas. Rafferty presents these Plexiglas pieces as a "rogue's gallery" of high-fashion figures. Like a row of mug shots in a police station, Rafferty mediates and exhibits figures in designer clothing sourced from retail websites.
