The Importance of Being Furnished | R. Tripp Evans

Step into the lives of four influential Queer men whose homes defined American style from the Gilded to the Jazz Age, yet whose personal lives have until now remained in shadow. In this talk, art historian R. Tripp Evans delves into the private worlds of Charles L. Pendleton, Ogden Codman, Jr., Charles H. Gibson, Jr., and Henry Davis Sleeper as they crafted interiors that reflected yet concealed their identities. Stories of these domestic bachelors told by Evans in his book, "The Importance of Being Furnished: Four Bachelors at Home," reveal the complicated depths beneath their homes' brilliant surfaces. Presented as part of The Wolfsonian's Mark Mamolen program series on American homes, investigating how the design of living space powerfully expresses individual personality and social values.
