Opening Reception for Bitter Fruits & Anxiety Dreams exhibits
Friday February 1, 7pm-10pm

Bitter Fruits
The history of art has largely been written by works that resulted from and served to perpetuate the male gaze. These works tell us a great deal about the roles women have played in art and society, and also about how women are viewed today. Altered Esthetic's February exhibition, Bitter Fruit, will examine how contemporary artists--both male and female--deal with this shared history, and where it has left us. We hope to illuminate the issue through a selection of work that comments not only upon this history, but upon the possibility of a future located outside the conventional narrative history of art.
The Bitter Fruits exhibit will feature over 150 works of sculpture, painting, photography and performance art from over 80 artists.
