Opening Reception | Scott Covert's "Eternal Party of the Passed" Gravestone Rubbing Art Exhibition: Another Dead Supreme

Opening Receptions, April 18, 2025, 04/18/2025, Scott Covert's "Eternal Party of the Passed" Gravestone Rubbing Art Exhibition: Another Dead Supreme

Friday, April 18, 2025, 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm

Free

In his show, Another Dead Supreme, Scott Covert's subjects are either singular in focus or are groupings of topically related or entirely disconnected folks who share one common denominator: they now belong to the earth. His singular subjects either stoically state a name once or echo it many times over. In his composite canvases, Covert's subjects take on new lives and fraternize with lovers, peers, strangers, co-conspirators, and enemies in an eternal party of the passed.

Since 1985, Covert has traveled around the world making gravestone rubbings on both canvas and paper in which he layers names and epitaphs into expressionistic compositions. His colorful arrangements frequently contain multiple individuals both famous and infamous, which he gathers from cemeteries in vastly disparate locations. This project is equal parts earnest homage, collection of celebrity ephemera, subversive performance art, and travel diary. To make his "Monument Paintings," Covert mounts canvas over tombstones before using wax oil crayon in a frottage technique to transfer names and epitaphs to its surface. These canvases are often built up over the course of years, sometimes decades, as Covert makes multiple trips in order to gather all of the rubbings he deems essential. Once back in his studio, he further adorns the canvas with oil paint and sometimes glitter.

The exhibition will be open from April 18th through May 24th.
