The works of Brett Alexander, Kim Blunt, Soozie Coumbe, Brian Cox, Caroline Hale, Varelle Hardy, Anne-Maree Hunter, Nathan Keogh, Camille Kersley, Margaret McBride, Giselle Penn, Philippe Ribbons and Sharon Taylor will be part of the Barbie and Ken exhibition.
The show is a response to a toy that was ubiquitous but also highly sought after in many people’s childhoods.
It was a toy imbued with the hopes and dreams of innocence.
The fantasies and frustrations of generations of children can be seen in the artefacts that remain.
Opening celebration: September 30 at 6pm.
Exhibition dates: September 30 until October 16.
Gallery hours: Friday, Saturday and Sunday between 11am and 5pm
Back to Back Galleries is located at 57 Bull St, Cooks Hill.
