For this project, the artist used the Russian version of Facebook \u2014 Vkontakte*.<\/p>\n<p>Irina Popova has found over 8000 different profiles registered under the name Irina Popova. Indeed, both the surname Popov and first name Irina are very common in Russia. She browsed the profiles with a growing curiosity \u2013 because those Irina Popovas scattered over Russia, of different ages and social status, were likely to represent the full range of possibilities for a woman\u2019s destiny given their different circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>Social networks have not only become the substitutes for traditional family albums, but a major source of entertainment and a form of self-representation.<\/p>\n<p>It seems that in such a patriarchal country as Russia women seriously struggle for male attention, and the most important factor for life success becomes a glamorous (and sometimes exaggerated) idea of beauty.<\/p>\n<p>In it\u2019s original edit the project contains about 36 000 images. Popova worked with 3 assistants for 3 months to download these images, one by one. The project was first presented in the Hermitage Museum, Amsterdam in November 2013, in a group exhibition \u201cRussian Ateliers on Amstel\u201d. Here Popova took two walls, filled with more than 1000 images.<\/p>\n<p>It took her another two years to make the final selection and to shape it into book form.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div>\u20ac30.00<\/div>\n<p><a title=\"Buy it\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mottodistribution.com\/shop\/the-incomplete-princess-book.html\">\u00a0Buy it<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Each copy of the &#8220;The Incomplete Princess Book&#8221; has a unique handmade frontcover.
