Raves and Reviews
"….features a broad collection of works by various artists (from Louise Bourgeois, to Chopova Lowena, to Meret Oppenheim, Harley Weir, Tina Barney, and many more) investigating the world of girls, challenging the rigid conception that Western art has long imposed on them…."
– Exhibition review, Vogue
"…frames girlhood as both archetype and subversion….brilliant…"
– Sofia De La Cruz, Exhibition review, Wallpaper Magazine
"…reclaims the word from nullifying cliché, framing adolescence not just as a catalogue of struggles, but as a crucible of strength, self-invention and agency….Girls offers a reminder to all of us – even as grown women – of the importance of reaching inward to touch again the wonder and intensity of girlhood."
– Madeleine Rothery, Exhibition review, AnOther Magazine
