"The Grey Window Becoming" vs “Doll”

My Virtual Museum

Description

Can art be uncomfortable, but still interesting to look at? In this episode of My Virtual Museum, Lizzie and Colin look at two sculptures: 'The Grey Window Becoming' (1973-84) by Kienholz and 'Doll' (1936) by Hans Bellmer, which both confront disturbing themes and perversions. Join our lecturers as they unravel the powerful messages behind both works.
