The Collection of Arabella Grayson

This exhibition runs from  Nov. 12 2006 to April 29, 2007 and features the collection of Arabella Grayson, whose interest in finding paper playthings that look like her evolved into a passionate journey. The paper dolls presented provide an accurate reflection of social changes, illustrate attitudes and societal perceptions and too often depict the caricatures and ethnic stereotypes that define the place, role and status of people of African origin in society.
