In the heart of Manhattan, behind a cloaked shop window, a common ritual will unfold, veiled in secrecy.

Through an intimate installation of "Free Your Soul" tapestries, bronze sculptures, and cozy "puff" seats, Star offers a glimpse of what society deems too "explicit" for public eyes and an exploration of our culture’s concealment of and secrecy about common, everyday rituals.

For a peek at some of her works and to gain some insight into her take on "Art, Feminism, and Funny Penises," check out her conversation with art critic and artist Julia Bardolim, here: http://jonny-star.com/interviews-press/interview-juliana-bardolim/

Join Jonny Star on the 23rd for "a special intervention."


About the Artist

Star’s work combines a variety of media such as bronze, photography, and fabric. Her installations explore biographical experiences, sexuality, gender roles, and identity and how they are perceived by society. Jonny Star's work has been shown internationally since 1996. She has participated in various group exhibitions in NYC, and curated two international group exhibitions at Rush Arts Gallery (2015) and chashama 266 (2014) supported in part by the Berlin Senate Cultural Affairs Department.
