The 'Fairy Tales' exhibition comes alive with magical moments that defy expectations. Timothy Horn’s 'Mother-load' 2008 presents an improbable object - a coach made of sugar - rendering make‑believe into reality, while 'Glass slipper (ugly blister)' 2001 gives a modern take on the 'Cinderella' story with an oversized, highly embellished jewel-encrusted slipper.
The ‘Fairy Tales’ exhibition at Brisbane’s Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA) explores our fascination with this much-loved genre through a multifaceted telling of these tales in art, film and design. ‘Fairy Tales‘ unfolds across three themed chapters. ‘Into the Woods’ which explores the conventions and characters of traditional fairy tales alongside their contemporary retellings. ‘Through the Looking Glass’ presents newer tales of parallel worlds that are filled with unexpected ideas and paths. ‘Ever After’ brings together classic and current tales to celebrate aspirations, challenge convention and forge new directions.
