Fabulous Anger, a new series of works on paper by Carter Kustera, is Kustera’s first solo exhibition in New York in more than a decade.
At once poignant and witty, Fabulous Anger is a provocative body of work that explores the commodification of violence by combining image and text in a format familiar to advertising. Through his politicization of the fashion layout Kustera takes a critical look at the way violence is presented through the media and questions our threshold for its acceptable presentation.
