Putting the Days to Bed
Right now, as you’re reading this—assuming you’re reading this before 7 p.m. Friday—Whippersnapper Gallery (587A College Street) is open for the third edition of “Sleep is for Dead People.” The event stretches twenty-fours, from Thursday to Friday evening, during which twenty artists all stay and create work at Whippersnapper, with the public invited in to watch the magic slowly and sleepily unfold.
Among those present are Istoica, who will be taking photos throughout the night. You can keep up with their photos as they’re added to the Whippersnapper Gallery’s website, or follow the night with the brief videos that are constantly being added to YouTube. The completed art will be displayed at the event’s opening reception at 7 p.m. on Thursday, April 24.
