Daniel & Geo Fuchs ToyGiants Exhibition
Film, political and comic hero toys photographed in a way where the line between reality and fiction disappears. Due to the fact of the expression on the toys faces and the comical effect of the toys staged combination. As the point of departure for their photo series TOYGIANTS , the artists Daniel and Geo Fuchs use the, to a certain extent, highly political world of toy figures, which are sold and traded internationally. The artists created portraits of toys in large-sized prints: American comic heroes of the 1960s; muscle-bound fantasy figures; Japanese Manga superstars; actors and directors such as Bruce Willis, Sylvester Stallone and Quentin Tarantino; even world-leaders such as George W. Bush and his opponent Saddam Hussein; or artists such as Andy Warhol who are presented as “toys”. For more info’s and pics follow the jump.
