Inspired by Marcel Duchamp’s infamous 1917 masterpiece, “Fountain” (the urinal), this award show features some of Birmingham’s most beloved artists and art enthusiasts dressed in costume as some of the most influential figures from the history of visual art. We’ll have Frida Kahlo, Leonardo da Vinci, Pablo Picasso, Georgia O’Keeffe, Salvador Dali, the Mona Lisa and many more presenting Fountys (small clay replicas of “Fountain”) to winners of categories like “Most Confusing to the General Public”, “Most Whimsical Representation of the Human Body.” “Most Posthumous Success,” and plenty more–all leading up to the final award of the evening, “Best Picture.”
