Jet Set Saturday’s: In Bed Together at Royal T Café
Kendell Carter, “Effigy for a Persisten Wrestling Match with Form and Contentâ€, 2009. 14 carat gold-plated boxing shoes & electrical wire. Dimensions variable. Courtesy private collection, Beverly Hills.
“Further investigation reveals that show highlights can be found near the back of the building, one of which is the work of ghetto-fabulous wünderkind Kendell Carter. Carter’s installation is a dangling pair of gold boxing shoes, cleverly hung from a line installed high in the gallery space. The hanging shoes remind one of the ubiquitous hallmarks of every major US city and apparently, in Carter’s heart, every gallery as well.”
