American artist Marilyn Minter's third solo show at Andréhn-Schiptjenko presents seven photos from a 2007 shoot with Pamela Anderson, originally commissioned by the contemporary-art quarterly Parkett. The large-scale, pastel-colored works take an up-close view of the actress, drenched in water and soap bubbles. Each print reveals a rare and refreshing side of Anderson, seen here as a solemn and imperfect woman complete with wrinkles, birthmarks, and freckles. Also included in the exhibition is Barbed Wire, a dynamic enamel painting on metal that combines various elements from the same shoot into a composite portrait of the iconic actress. The exhibition continues Minter's exploration of failed glamour, an ever-present theme in her work since Coral Ridge Towers — the celebrated 1969 photo series of Minter's drug-abusing mother.
