SUNS. MOONS. STARS. DREAMS. :: Kalup Linzy

May 21 - June 26, 2016

Suns. Moons. Stars. Dreams. presents recent work from the renowned video, performance and collage artist Kalup Linzy. Linzy (American, b. 1977), who is currently based in Brooklyn, New York, employs a lo-fi aesthetic heavily influenced by soap operas. Linzy’s video works investigate stereotypes of race, gender, and sexual identity. Although Linzy collaborates often, most notably with actor and artist James Franco, he regularly appears in his work, taking on a variety of outrageous characters.

Suns. Moons. Stars. Dreams. is a new collection of collages, videos and photography works created in Tampa during his time as the inaugural resident in the Tempus Projects Artist Residency Program. The first of its kind in the region, the Tempus Projects residency program aims to foster and develop arts in the Tampa Bay area.
