Extra-Conjugale were invited by Openshowstudio to participate in Dayz of Glory, a pop-up exhibition in a warehouse in Tauros, Athens. The collaborative duo presented a series of site specific works featuring teen idol Brooke Shields. Blue Lagoon, Draft Beauty, Hanging Idol and Boat Teen are parts of a body of work based on a collection of Brooke Shields photographs that were published in greek magazines between 1983 and 1989.
Openshowstudio is a contemporary art project space and platform. Founded on 2010 by Sofia Touboura, visual artist and sociologist, it has since been presenting collaborative experimental projects on a national and international level.
