Fraenkel Gallery is pleased to present ANTI-ICON: APOKALYPSIS, an ambitious new body of work by artist Martine Gutierrez. The series continues her exploration of identity across the cultural landscapes of gender, race, and celebrity. Costumed by the barest of essentials, Gutierrez transforms herself into a multitude of idols, re-envisioning a diverse canon of radical heroines who have achieved legendary cultural influence over thousands of years in both art history and pop culture.
