Corwin Levi and Michelle Aldredge hope to raise $25,000.00 on Kickstarter for a book entitled Mirror Mirrored: A Contemporary Artists’ Edition of 25 Grimm’s Tales. 27 artists have signed on to contribute to this project.
The finished book will feature paintings, drawings, sculptures, and video pieces. We’ve embedded a video about the project above. Here’s more from the Kickstarter page:
“Many of us were introduced to these stories as children, but the Grimms’ tales were always meant for grownups. They remain powerful and relevant today because they continue to speak to us across generations and cultures. Much like the Biblical stories remimagined by artists like Giotto and Caravaggio, these fairy tales are perfect for reinterpretation.”
