Costumed cabinet cards en masse

Salvaged Relatives invitation

We'd love to invite you to a One Night Only viewing of Salvaged Relatives (editions I, II, and III).

A suite of three unique state artists’ books featuring sixty-three individual collaged cabinet cards. Housed in brightly-hued linen Solander boxes, these Salvaged Relatives now sport costumes from the Ballet Russes, including Nijinsky’s Blue God tunic modified and a Eunuch’s embroidered silk and velvet sensation from Shéhérazade.

5 – 7:30pm

Wednesday the 11th of February, 2015
