New Public Art! Late Capital Pods by Jonathan Monaghan
Rochester Contemporary Art Center
137 East Ave.
Jun 6, 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Join us this First Friday for the opening of our new public art installation!

Late Capital Pods is a series of large-scale images by Jonathan Monaghan that reimagine Rochester’s Gilded Age architecture as opulent, spacecraft-like forms — hybrid objects that hover between historical ornament and futuristic relic. Referencing Fabergé eggs, luxury design, and sci-fi aesthetics, these surreal structures are composed of local architectural fragments, bejeweled with elements of contemporary technological surveillance: smartwatches, cell towers, and security cameras.

Come see these large scale artworks in-person outside RoCo, and learn more about the project here.
