Mister Fahrenheit is very pleased to present Komedy Cellar,
a site-specific project by Jacob Kassay. Reframing the gallery space
through systems of new sculpture and painting, this exhibition marks
Mister Fahrenheit’s sixth season.
In his project at Mister Fahrenheit, Kassay amplifies this haptic sense through direct engagements with site and language, specifically that of live, stand-up comedy. Titled in reference to the eponymous underground comedy club located blocks away from the gallery, Komedy Cellar punctuates the space’s architecture with a series of shaped handrail sculptures affixed to walls, lining elevations, and bisecting pathways.
