"Meet the Artist" with Gregg Evans

On Thursday, October 17, we welcome Gregg Evans to “Meet the Artist” night at CPW. Evans will present his ongoing series A Setting Sun, along with some spreads from the latest book in the series, A Setting Sun, Vol. V. He will have a small selection of books on hand for viewing, and copies of his most recent book available for sale.

Join us every Thursday evening at CPW, when we host illuminating talks with local and visiting artists. “Meet the Artist” allows the public to get to know new work, to hear about artistic processes, and to meet friends and other local artists. The evening takes place at CPW’s gallery at 474 Broadway in Kingston, NY. It is free and open to the public. Coffee, tea, and snacks are served. “Meet the Artist” is made possible by a generous grant from the Arnold and Augusta Newman Foundation.

Gregg Evans is an artist based in Accord, NY. He holds an MFA in photography from Columbia College Chicago and a BFA in photography from the State University of New York at Purchase. His ongoing series, A Setting Sun, deals with notions of archaeology, the anthropocene, and what we as a society leave behind when we’re gone. He has published five volumes of A Setting Sun with +KGP/Monolith and is slowly working on a sixth. Among other exhibitions, he has shown at the Aperture Gallery; New York, The Griffin Museum of Photography; Boston, White Columns; New York, and has work in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Guggenheim Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the MIT List Visual Art Center.
