Altered Barbie Exhibit

Happy Birthday, Barbie! “Celebrating artists from around the Bay who reuse everything to make Barbie and Ken into recycled and re-usable art; including mixed-media, painting, printmaking, photography, quilts, fashion, poetry & 3D Barbies with video, performance and film!” Die “Altered Barbie Exhibit” zeigt Barbie, wie wir sie schon immer mal sehen wollten: Als Bulimie-Barbie, SM-Barbie oder Junkie-Barbie. Und die älteren unter uns, müssen natürlich da auch an den legendären Fake der “Barbie Liberation Organization” denken.
