Kapp Kapp's "Velvet Other World: Bimboteque" Part I

Velvet Other World ©

Kapp Kapp’s Velvet Other World: Bimboteque is the gallery’s second solo exhibition with the artist-duo and their first solo exhibition in the gallery’s expanded exhibition space in Tribeca. Presented in two parts, with distinct focuses on Velvet Other World’s painting and drawing practices respectively, Bimboteque represents a further investigation of the duo’s ongoing examination of the constructive and protective nature of dress. Through the hyperbolic and highly-aestheticized lens of bimbofication, Velvet Other World’s latest work is both more plastic and more sensitive than ever.

Bimboteque will be on view through August 5 @ Kapp Kapp, 86 Walker St., 4th Fl. New York, NY 10013
