SUMMARY:"Overlapping Empires" Virtual Exhibit & Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Explore Overlapping Empires online through a virtual exhibition presentation and discussion featuring artist Samantha Box. \n\n\n\nJoin Van Cortlandt House Museum online for a virtual presentation and discussion of Overlapping Empires\, a site-wide contemporary art exhibition by Samantha Box. \n\n\n\nNow installed throughout the historic house\, Overlapping Empires brings Box’s still-life photography and installation work into direct dialogue with one of New York City’s earliest colonial sites. This virtual program will offer a closer look at the exhibition as installed in the museum\, including how the works engage with the rooms\, objects\, and layered histories of Van Cortlandt House Museum. \n\n\n\nThrough richly composed still-life photography and installation\, Box draws on the visual languages of 17th-century painting\, tourism imagery\, and contemporary product photography to explore connections between empire\, trade\, migration\, and memory. The exhibition considers the house not as a neutral backdrop\, but as a historic site shaped by colonial economies\, Caribbean and Latin American trade\, enslavement\, migration\, and nation-building. \n\n\n\nThis online program will include a virtual look at the exhibition\, background on the artist’s process\, and a discussion of how Overlapping Empires invites new ways of seeing the museum and the histories embedded within it. \n\n\n\nOverlapping Empires is on view at Van Cortlandt House Museum from June through August 2026.
