This Relationship Is Over – Over-analyzed, Over-commercialized, and Over-rated: A Youth-Curated Analysis Of Love And Pop Culture This exhibition juxtaposes Andy Warhol’s chronicles of love to the realm of love as seen through today’s teens. Four Pittsburgh area high school students take a look at how the media attempts to influence and define the public’s perceptions of romance, and compare that media image to romance as they’ve experienced it - shown through a display of love objects, picture-narrated photo booth strips demonstrating various examples of teen relationships, and photos of various make-out spots of Pittsburgh. The exhibit was a part of the annual Youth Invasion event, and opened with an interactive section to include the opinions and character of visitors to the museum. Through media images, interviews, the experiences of the curators, and public interaction, the exhibit presents the overall idea that romantic love is far too complicated to be accurately definied. |
