LE TAROT DE BERLIN NOIR
at Mexico's Morbido Fest

(Montreal, QC – November 7, 2013) –  Artist Fn VEGAS will be premiering her latest solo exhibition, LE TAROT DE BERLIN NOIR, in Mexico's 6th annual Morbido Fest (November 13-17, Patzcuaro, Michoacan) which has chosen as this year's theme: Magic, Superstitions and Spells. The project re-envisions the twenty-two cards of the Major Arcana from the classic Tarot deck through the shadowy lens of turn-of-the-century symbolism and aesthetics.

Realized and textured with a technique of printing on cork, the mystical cards will be presented in 15' X 23' original cork board, as well as 8' X 10' signed poster prints. The presentation will also feature interpretive text written by award-winning filmmaker and publisher RODRIGO GUDIÑO (The Last Will and Testament of Rosalind Leigh, Rue Morgue Magazine).

Prints from Le Tarot de Berlin Noir will be available for purchase following the premiere on November 20th from Vegas' online store at http://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/FnVegas.

An official Tarot de Berlin Noir deck featuring all twenty-two Major Arcana cards and accompanying text will also be available for pre-order on December 1 from http://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/FnVegas.
