PLAINS ART MUSEUM www.plainsart.org Plains Art Museum is pleased to showcase the exhibit No Lumps, Thank You: A Bra Anthologie, works by Meg Spielman Peldo, Oct 19 Jan 31. No Lumps is a humorous and poignant photographic collection of playful brassieres, created from a wide and wild variety of common objects. Conceptually and visually connected to the art of the readymade (art made from everyday objects), and to the art of Renaissance master Giuseppe Arcimboldo, who created imaginative portraits from fruits, vegetables, flowers, fish and books, Spielman-Peldos work is a contemporary twist on the genre of still life. The artist creates remarkably clever images that appeal to both sexes and virtually all age groups. This body of work was created to support women fighting breast cancer, highlighting this serious issue while raising awareness.
