Art Review: Bend Me, Misshape Me

The exhibition is divided up according to themes, including full-length portraiture, fragmentation, exaggeration of the figure and the body in motion. Because the bulk of the collection was assembled in the 1990s, it reflects not only that era’s fashionable artists but also the art world’s concerns with subjectivity, gender and sexuality. In this way the show is something of a time capsule.
