San Gennaro 2018
Jackson Hallberg, Pixy Liao, Devin N. Morris, Elizabeth Renstrom, Marco Scozzaro, and Tiffany Smith
Organized and facilitated by Nicole Bull and Kaz Senju
Baxter St at the Camera Club of New York will host an exhibition of works from the San Gennaro Festival in its new space at 128 Baxter St from December 11, 2018 through January 12, 2019. The exhibition will consist of 6 customized backdrops that were made for the San Gennaro Festival 2018 photo booth. Baxter St’s involvement in the San Gennaro Festival from September 13 to September 23, 2018 was a part of the organization’s multifaceted community program with the aim of being good neighbors and participate in a long standing tradition of community and culture. Fair attendees were able to have their portraits taken in front of the backdrops designed by emerging lens-based artists as part of the Guest Curated Exhibition Program.
