Carter Kustera
 
 
At once poignant and witty, Fabulous Anger is a provocative body of work that explores the commodification of violence. Combining image and text in a format familiar to advertising — the fashion layout — Kustera takes a critical look at the way violence is presented through the media. "As a contemporary society we have become so accustomed and numbed to witnessing violence and social deviations that it has become a part of our everyday experience," states the artist, and through his politicization of the fashion layout, Kustera questions our threshold for its acceptable presentation.

Kustera has been included in several influential international exhibitions, including two Venice Bienniales. His artwork has been featured in an award-winning annual report for Progressive Insurance, as computer animation for rock band, U2's Pop Mart tour and wall installation for Barney's Co-op stores nationwide.
