"THE DARKER SIDE OF PLAYLAND: Childhood Imagery from the Logan Collection"
2000-09-01 until 2001-01-02
San Francisco Museum of Modern Art
San Francisco, CA,
USA
Third in a series of presentations from the Kent and Vicki Logan Collection of
contemporary art, this exhibition focuses on works that depict toys, cartoon
characters and childhood fantasies observed from a child's perspective.
While many
of the images in the exhibition are normally associated with childhood happiness,
others implicate issues of violence in society and cultural identity. Artists represented
in the exhibition include David Levinthal, Laurie Simmons, Shonagh Adelman and
J.D. Beltran.
