Cindy Sherman: KARMA CHAMELEON!

Ohhh we don't often do alive artists, but when we do we tend to shit on Robert Longo because we mixed him up with Robert Smithson… hatred can be dumbing in that way... So if you love Cindy, but you hate Spiral Jetty... THIS ONE IS FOR YOU! Come join us as we talk about our intensely private, driven, and disruptor Cindy Sherman!Xoxo,
