"The Lucent Parlor Installation,'' by Aaron Pexa, at Cade Tompkins Projects, Providence, Sept. 11-Oct. 31.

The gallery says:

"Aaron Pexa is an American artist and architect whose work manifests curiosity and a sense of bewilderment through projection, optics, and appropriated antique objects. His multimedia works and video fracture and reframe everyday environments through the creation of artifacts, sleight of hand actions, and experimental operations.''

Will Cade Tompkins soon make this space available as a romantic restaurant?
