Ute Behrend

Following her Girls, Some Boys and Other Cookies, which looked into contemporary childhood and adolescence, Ute Behrend articulates what those images suggested--that the archetypal folk and fairy tales for which her native Germany is known still speak to contemporary kids. And adults. Wolves, grandmas, straw, gold, Fairy Tales has them all, acted by a cast of dogs, grannies and kids with props including shredded brown paper and glimmering tinsel.
