Cindy Sherman – The Vivisector Opens Today at Spruth Magers London

I was just about to settle in to post a few of my impressions from last night’s private view of The Vivisector show at Spruth Magers London. Then I noticed everything was summed up well enough at the Froggette blog. So, I’ll just link to that write up (once you click through scroll down for the English version of that review). But allow me to add that this Todd Levin curated exhibition of Cindy Sherman’s works along with pieces by artists like Morton Bartlett, Georges Bataille, Hans Bellmer, Bruce Nauman and Frederick Sommer is as unnerving as it is captivating.

The Vivisector runs until 26 January 2013 at Spruth Magers London, 7A Grafton Street, London, W1S 4EJ . It’s free to view Tuesday through Saturday, 10am to 6pm. Find out more at spruethmagers.com.
