Ben Jones Celebrates the New Dark Age
Ben Jones, one third of art group, Paper Rad, is currently showing off his solo skills at AMP Gallery in Athens, Greece. Celebrate the New Dark Age (a title which may be another nod to 90s indie band Polvo), is a multimedia day-glo installation of vibrant painting, sculpture, and video, which Jones will evolve as it travels to further locations in 2009. To accompany the exhibit, PictureBox has published Jones’ first book, which can be purchased here. Show runs till Oct. 23. Read through for the visual recap.
