Mariposa is pleased to announce Another Man’s Treasure, a group exhibition opening July 11, 2025, in Aspen, Colorado. The show will take place at Alderfer Antiques, a functioning antique store housed in a 19th-century miner’s cabin on Main Street. The exhibition will include recent works by Casey Bolding, Drake Carr, Chivas Clem, Plum Cloutman, Chelsea Culprit, Max Xeno Karnig, Brian Kokoska, Antone Konst, Sean Landers, Peter McGough, Sean Micka, Alessandro Miotti, Sarah Miska, Jack Pierson, Alessandro Teoldi, and Chloe Wise, as well as two historic artworks from the estate of John Boskovitch.

 

The exhibition takes the antique store as its organizing principle—a space where objects from the past are gathered, displayed, and revalued. It is also a space of reimagination and coded meaning. With its excessive, sentimental, and idiosyncratic aesthetic, the antique store invites a camp sensibility: the tacky becomes expressive, the outdated becomes fashionable. The store resists the logic of the new and the linear pull of consumption. Instead, it asks us to engage the past as layered, flexible, and open to reinterpretation.

 

Artists are drawn to the same impulses– finding beauty in the overlooked, elevating the mundane, and transforming the discarded into the treasured. This exhibition brings together a multigenerational group of artists, each of whose practices reflect these concerns. In each of their practices, these artists do not merely reference the past; they reframe it, constructing new meanings from old forms to speak more urgently to the present.
