Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 21,5 x 29 cm, Hardcover, 64 pages, 28 color & 2 b/w illustrations - In her paintings and drawings, Dawn Mellor (*1970 in UK) uses black humour to deconstruct the cult of the star (which appears to have been chosen in our society as a substitute for religion) and its believer the fan. The majority of female protagonists in her works are music icons such as Madonna, Courtney Love or Britney Spears, but there are also appearances by film actresses and figures such as Audrey Hepburn, Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz (alias Judy Garland), or "glamourous" politicians such as Hilary Clinton or Condoleezza Rice.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dawn Mellor takes popular female icons like Madonna, Courtney Love, Britney Spears and even Hillary Clinton, and paints them into narratives in which the artist herself plays a fictional role--as a sadistic voyeur, a pathological pornographer, or a murderous stalker. Mellor's blackly humorous scenarios are rendered in a style that simultaneously evokes Surrealism, Pop art and the underground trashiness of a Joe Coleman. Seller Inventory # 79078
