Check out what others are saying...[…] States’ Night Sweats is now currently on view at NAPOLEON Gallery in Philadelphia, PA from […]
[…] The hottest imagery of the night is Chad States’ show at Napoleon. Pass through the black curtain and enter a chamber with a kind of man-made bonfire on the floor that casts its fiery red/orange glow and seems to be eating up an image sitting beneath it. The piece, called “Night Sweats,” evokes many references, from the obvious medical reference in the title to the idea of hidden cultures and societies with rituals obvious to the members and indecipherable to those outside. Whatever the desire on the part of States, the piece is a powerful visual installation. See it this weekend before it’s gone.
