Michael Armitage at BAM/PFA

This body of work by Michael Armitage reflects on sexuality and gender stereotypes in Kenya, as well as the historical relationship between Westen and non-Western cultures. In the photo above Armitage is playing off of Picasso's Les Demoiselles d’Avignon. Rather than using the imagery of female prostitutes, Armitage uses "Beach Boys" who scour the beaches of Kenya for older, rich, European women to sell goods, drugs, and sex to.
