I love the brashness of this ongoing series, Poupée Barbie, by French artist Jocelyn Grivaud, created to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the doll that (most) every girl grew up with. Grivaud has pulled stills from iconic movies, paintings and photos, casting Barbie as the star in a statement about her seemingly timeless relevance.

I think the ManRay is my favourite. Demonstrates how Barbie really warped woman’s image.

Somehow Barbie as Mona Lisa reminds me a little of Angelina Jolie. Love it.
