New Wave warmly invites you to a special virtual tour of Paula Cooper Gallery's current Palm Beach exhibition, The Politics of Desire. This special Zoom tour, led by Director Steve Henry, will feature selected works by Sarah Charlesworth, Ja'Tovia Gary, Christian Marclay and Paul Pfieffer. In cutting, rearranging, and manipulating a variety of archival images, these artists have created multi-media works that reveal both the unreality of the fabricated images that are their source material and the spectacular nature of the culture that produced them. The resulting group of works examines the subjects, objects, and politics of human desire while operating at the intersection of race and gender.
