A New Show — and a New Location — for Superhouse is Allowing Stephen Markos to Think Big
It's fitting that Paa Joe’s Celestial City is the inaugural show in Superhouse's expanded space. Not only because the Ghanaian sculptor’s work spans art and design, but because it speaks to a certain aesthetic conversation between the present and the past that Superhouse has been participating in — a contemporary revival of an early '80s aesthetic, kind of Postmodern, occasionally mixed with Warholian commercial iconography. It sparks thoughts on how we interact with brands and the commodification of just about everything, but it’s also… fun.
