The opening reception starts at 6:30pm on April 26, 2012,  not 10am as was originally posted.

The Goethe-Institut San Francisco invited well-known German artists from the Bay Area to create their own interpretation of the 200-year anniversary of the Brothers Grimm.

The world famous fairy tale collection by the Brothers Grimm was first published in 1812.
