Former Dinosaur Jr. album artist and assistant professor of Electronic Media at Indiana's Ball State University, Maura Jasper, has an installation at Vox Populi's Forth Wall. Reserved for video, film, animation or new media, Fourth Wall is currently dedicated to "The Gates," curated by Elisabeth Subrin. "The Gates" is a video projection which pairs Princess Diana's bridal and funeral processions. The videos have been edited for uniform speed and run six minutes in length as they demonstrate these well-attended bookends of her public life.

Jasper says the works were inspired by two wedding chest panels by Renaissance artist Francesco Pesellino: The Triumphs of Love, Chastity and Death, and The Triumphs of Fame, Time and Eternity. Like in Pesellino's panels, Princess Di's "past, present, and future appear to occur in a simultaneous holding pattern."

Through July 31, free, Vox Populi Gallery, 319 N. 11th St., third floor, 215-238-1236, voxpopuligallery.org, fourthwallatvox.blogspot.com.
