Anyone who is a fan of camp (the aesthetic) should love Summer Camp, the new exhibition at Schroeder Romero & Shredder in Chelsea:

Schroeder Romero is thrilled to announce the exhibition Summer Camp featuring James Bidgood, Brice Brown, Tom of Finland, Scott Hunt, Heather Johnson, Thomas Lanigan-Schmidt, Cary Leibowitz/Candyass, Jean Lowe, Robert Mapplethorpe, Uzi Parnes, Carl Plansky, John Waters, and Ken Weaver representing over forty years of work about and within ‘camp’ culture and aesthetic—an aesthetic, according to Susan Sontag’s Notes on Camp (1964), focused on artifice, frivolity, naïve middle-class pretentiousness, and ‘shocking’ excess.

This all sounds like a winning combination of eclecticism from some of the greatest minds in camp. The exhibit is already open, so check it out now!
