Concurrently with Keith Edmier 1991–2007, the CCS Bard Hessel Museum presents, Exhibitionism: An Exhibition of Exhibitions of Works from the Marieluise Hessel Collection. This new installation of the Hessel Collection, curated by White Columns director Matthew Higgs, presents a series of exhibitions in each of the 16 galleries in the newly inaugurated Hessel Museum.

"With a title like an epitaph, sculptures like wax museum effigies, and a full-scale 1970s ranch-house interior, as quiet as a chapel, at its center, this career retrospective of work by Mr. Edmier, an artist who has been exhibiting in New York since 1993 and who was included in the 2002 <a href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/w/whitney_museum_of_american_art/index.html?inline=nyt-org" style="font-style: italic;" title="More articles about Whitney Museum of American Art">Whitney Biennial</a>, is one of the more bizarre solo shows to come along in a while.

It looks like a tour de force of e-bay nostalgia shopping. But the artist, using family photographs and memories as cues, made or revamped almost everything in it — from kitchen appliances, to curtains, to a carved wood figure of a hooded monk that stands like a memento mori in the middle of the living room. Characteristically, in its reconstructed version, the monk is also a portrait of the artist’s father.

He was a formidable sculptor when he was barely into his teens, cooking up clay models for masks and prosthetic devices inspired by horror and monster films. During high school he made contact with special-effects makeup artists. In 1985, Mr. Edmier moved to Los Angeles to work on films, among them David Cronenberg’s remake of “The Fly.” He also enrolled at California Institute of the Arts, where he had a formative immersion in the neo-conceptualist and appropriation art being grouped under the label of post-modernism. His stay there was short — a year — but it directed his career goals from popular film to art and prompted a relocation to New York City in 1990. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_CSDtCgGc5_M1rul41ZdepyZrwdKZ31q-0t5Jh6yjvyjgYxsspwcom1d6-XleCwzSc51sovmVMpbE9FBH_ni8WPb20X7gdgNRFMiWVxJfMNUqVuXJvEinO9dLwe9WYpzdig06ts_OclLa/s1600-h/beverly.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5154260919123028130" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_CSDtCgGc5_M1rul41ZdepyZrwdKZ31q-0t5Jh6yjvyjgYxsspwcom1d6-XleCwzSc51sovmVMpbE9FBH_ni8WPb20X7gdgNRFMiWVxJfMNUqVuXJvEinO9dLwe9WYpzdig06ts_OclLa/s400/beverly.JPG" style="cursor: pointer; width: 401px; height: 512px;" /></a> Above: “Beverly Edmier, 1967” (1998), Photo: Andy Keate <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFfdf_b9WKPe8ikRbwD1_UDSBeq28phy-AYITSD_z-U2ZuIYy2VxaUp8Z-IGe1yLrSdXLpi9-l5dlfWcUGosnCqccy704gnc3vHVAVUNqW19F82pN3mUskqTv_bVDxqKi0Vx_TWGlhXTgP/s1600-h/keith2.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5154271025181075762" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFfdf_b9WKPe8ikRbwD1_UDSBeq28phy-AYITSD_z-U2ZuIYy2VxaUp8Z-IGe1yLrSdXLpi9-l5dlfWcUGosnCqccy704gnc3vHVAVUNqW19F82pN3mUskqTv_bVDxqKi0Vx_TWGlhXTgP/s400/keith2.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 326px;" /></a> Above: detail of Beverly Edmier The startling sculpture called “Beverly Edmier, 1967,” is another Madonna and Child image, one that takes Mr. Edmier even further back into his past. It’s a life-size figure, cast in translucent pink plastic, of his own pregnant mother carrying him as a fetus curled up in her transparent womb. Like much of Mr. Edmier’s art, it has many referential layers that connect it with larger histories. Beverly’s seated pose echoes that of Abraham Lincoln, another Illinois resident, in the Lincoln Memorial. And she is dressed in a facsimile of the pink Chanel suit that Jacqueline Kennedy was wearing the day her husband was assassinated.
