poster for Maggie Taylor "In Wonderland"

This event has ended.

A selection of contemporary surrealistic images by Maggie Taylor illustrating the 150-year old story of Alice in Wonderland. Maggie thus joins the ranks of artists like Salvador Dali and more recently the fashion photographer Annie Leibovitz who continue to find inspiration in this classic story. The connection between Maggie Taylor’s computer-generated and lushly colorful digital prints and Lewis Carroll’s phantasmagorical story almost seem too obvious at first. But Maggie’s illustrations, so many years removed from the original Alice tale, have a definite post-modern feel, and seem liberated from the literal aspects of the story. Her Alice not only exists in the many shapes described in the book but also as many ages
