YOU WON'T FIND A MORE UNUSUAL TAKE ON OBAMA THAN THESE LTD. EDITION POSTERS BY DANIELLE ZIMMERMAN

Danielle Zimmerman, the German artist who was featured in our excellent intern-curated exhibition "Vis-a-visage" a couple years back at Object + Thought, has sent us three of the most intriguing and potentially collectible limited edition posters we've ever come across.  Her rendition of our president as an infant in poses based on renaissance paintings by Bellini, Crivelli and the master of Flemalle: mother mary with jesus, are downright spectacular, the originals made on her trademark plasticbags right after the election. According to Zimmerman, "I hope as everybody else, that Obama will do the best, but at the same time I have my doubts, that somebody who gets that far - after Bush - is more than a puppet."

We think these are gems and currently very inexpensive, anyone interested in acquiring them can come by Plus Gallery to discuss.



Zimmerman's work will be included in two German galleries this year, as well as the Karlsruhe art fair, to see more visit
