LIFE AS LEGEND + SCOT LEFAVOR
05.01.08
Life as a Legend: Marilyn Monroe, an exhibit at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center from May 3 – July 6, captures the beauty, sensuality and vulnerability of an American icon, who many have described as the sexiest woman of the 20th Century.
Experience the spark, sex appeal and sensation of Marilyn Monroe through the art of Andy Warhol, Christo, Douglas Kirkland, Robert Indiana, Mel Ramos, Richard Avedon, Bert Stern, Henri Cartier-Bresson and many others. This vivid and diverse exhibition of 286 objects captures Marilyn’s rise to stardom, her private life and public image, through works by more than 80 artists ranging from fashion photographers to Pop painters to international contemporary artists.
“This exhibition provides an intimate look at the enchanting actress who charmed the world with her looks, vulnerability and innocence,” said FAC Curator Tariana Navas-Nieves. “We are happy to bring this special traveling exhibition to Colorado Springs. As an added treat, we’ve invited several local and regional artists (including Scot Lefavor) to create their own original works of art inspired by Marilyn. We think that their contributions will make this blockbuster event even more memorable.”
Yeah, Lefavor… showing work alongside some of your heros!!! We can’t wait.
