Reviews for "Chicago's Flair for the Fantastical: Unforgettable Self-Portraits"
- Sarah - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with "Magical self portraits in Chicago". The concept seemed intriguing, but the execution fell flat for me. The photos were dull and lacked the magic that I was expecting. The self-portraits themselves were uninspired and failed to capture the essence of Chicago. Overall, I felt let down and would not recommend the exhibition.
- Mark - 1/5 stars - I was bored to tears at "Magical self portraits in Chicago". The artist seemed more interested in showcasing their own face than actually capturing the beauty of the city. The photos were overly posed and lacked any real emotion or creativity. It felt like a vanity project more than a true exploration of Chicago through self-portraits. Save your money and skip this one.
- Jessica - 2/5 stars - I had high hopes for "Magical self portraits in Chicago", but it unfortunately fell short for me. The concept was interesting, but the execution didn't quite live up to expectations. The photos lacked depth and the magical element promised in the title was hardly present. Additionally, I found the emphasis on self-portraits to be a bit self-indulgent. Overall, it was a mediocre exhibition that I wouldn't recommend investing much time in.
