Almost Alice: New Illustrations of Wonderland by Maggie Taylor
Harn Museum of Art, Gainesville, Florida


Tuesday, July 15, 2008 - Sunday, October 19, 2008

Digital pigment inkjet prints by Maggie Taylor showcase her innovative mastery of digital image manipulation and give a fresh insight in Lewis Carroll’s "Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland." Taylor’s composite images usually start with an original photographic portrait—often a daguerreotype or tintype from the mid-19th century setting of Alice and author Carroll. Her digital transformation brings out the fantasy and the fantastic that is at the heart of Carroll’s playfully ironic writing. Taylor’s photographic prints, like Carroll’s beloved text, engage imaginative minds of all ages, delighting adults as much as children. Her mastery of digital processes provides inspiration to working contemporary artists and photographers pushing the boundaries of the new media. A national tour for this exhibition is planned and will be accompanied by the publication of a new edition of "Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland" featuring Taylor’s illustrations. Support provided by the Londono Family Endowment.
