Cynthia Dorothy Albritton, born on May 24, 1947, and better known as Cynthia Plaster Caster, was a pioneering American visual artist and a self-proclaimed 'recovering groupie.' She gained notoriety for her unique artistic endeavor of creating plaster casts of celebrities' erect penises, a project that began in 1968 and would define her career.
Initially focusing on rock musicians, Cynthia's work quickly expanded to include filmmakers and various other artists, culminating in an impressive collection of over seventy plaster casts. Her bold approach to art challenged societal norms and sparked conversations about sexuality and celebrity culture.
In the year 2000, Cynthia took her artistry a step further by casting the breasts of female artists, further diversifying her portfolio and continuing to push the boundaries of her craft. Her work not only celebrated the human form but also highlighted the often-overlooked contributions of women in the art world.
Cynthia Plaster Caster's legacy is one of audacity and creativity, leaving an indelible mark on contemporary art and the cultural landscape.
