A famous movie star of our very epoch, Brigitte Bardot, had recently been widely criticized and accused of nationalism after having made a series of extremist utterances on the Islamic expansion within Europe.

 She has also abused homosexuals and other ‘minor’ communities, which, according to her view, put the classic French culture, the one of her own, on danger. 

 Still, the female characters created by Bardot remain for lots of people a model of social behavior, eroticism and woman’s self-representation of women.       

 In my project, I recreate a number of mostly known advertising posters that highlight formerly widely recognized character embodied by Bardot, whereas instead the original slogans I kind of paste some sentences from Bardot’s recent monograph ‘ Un cri dans le silence ‘, full of nationalistic and extremist expressions. In this way, I confront the two sorts of extremism both ever performed by Bardot – her shoking sexual appearances in the movies earlier in decades and her newest social self-expression, which are so that she’s still up for somewhat intolerable behavior.

 However, this first type of non-conformity has made her a high standard of the epoch, whereas what she now is doing places her among non grata figures.
