CULTURED: This Week In Culture: June 5 - June 11, 2023

Recognized for his beautiful transpositions of the intimate world into art, Jim Hodges is set to debut his new sculpture, Craig’s closet, this week. The granite and bronze sculpture, which is a rendering of a literal closet, asks viewers to think about items they keep sacred. The piece brings the personal into the public, confronting viewers with the boundaries between both. The sculpture will be on display for one year, continuing the New York City AIDS Memorial’s public art program. “Craig’s closet” will be unveiled on June 9, 2023 at 6 p.m. with a performance by Peter Witrak and Jamie Reynolds at the New York City AIDS Memorial Park.
