Abstract

For over 50 years, Lynn Hershman Leeson (born 1941) has created an innovative and prescient body of work that mines intersections between technology and the self. Known for her pioneering contributions to media art, Hershman Leeson has consistently worked in tandem with the latest technological developments from Artificial Intelligence to DNA programming, often anticipating many of the issues affecting society today. Twisted brings together a selection of the artist's work in drawing, sculpture, video, photography, and interactive and net-based art, focusing on themes of transmutation, identity construction and the evolution of the cyborg. It includes some of Hershman Leeson's most important projects, including the Breathing Machine sculptures, early drawings from the 1960s, many of which have never been shown, works from the Roberta Breitmore series (1970-79), perhaps her best-known project in which she transformed her own identity into a fictional persona, selections from her Water Women series (1976-2010), and many more.

Abstract

This book explores the relationships between how the body appears and feels in everyday life through aesthetics. The recent shift away from Kantian aesthetics towards a more enacted route places at its core the realization that the world is experienced as possibilities for action, and critical to this understanding is how the body’s movement generates multiple pre-linguistic experiences and meaning. This route therefore realizes the importance of the body’s role in working in conjunction with cognition in generating these experiences. Nevertheless, this attention has predominantly focused on how the body ‘feels’ through engagement, rather than how it appears. This might be problematic as it is essential to appreciate that the body is not naked in everyday life, and therefore through dress we look to restore the balance between appearance and feel. We ‘dress’ our bodies to communicate – to express our confidence (or not), identity, status, aspirations, affiliations etc. We dress according to the situation/audience etc. It might be to attract attention, to protect or to hide the body. It might be to accentuate height, or religious belief, or simply to shock or conform. Essentially, it is not simply clothing that we wear that achieves this – for example, hair, makeup, jewellery, handbags, shoes, piercings, tattoos – cumulatively these constitute how we ‘dress’ our bodies. Thus, the appearance (as well as the feel) of the body is significant if we are to appreciate an enacted approach to aesthetics.

Abstract

L'étude décrypte le courant artistique du body art depuis le groupe des actionnistes viennois des années 1960 jusqu'à ses expressions actuelles. Le corps devient médium et oeuvre d'art tout en défiant l'éthique, l'esthétique et le rapport au corps dans le monde occidental. L'auteur se fonde sur l'approche d'artistes comme Orlan, F. Bacon, D. Nebrada et D. Valls. ©Electre 2018

Abstract

ORLAN sort du cadre. Son nom s'écrit chaque lettre en capitales, car elle ne veut rentrer ni dans les rangs, ni dans la ligne. Son engagement, sa liberté, son féminisme font partie intégrante de son oeuvre plastique où elle défend des positions innovantes et subversives. Dès ses premières oeuvres, pionnières et interactives, ORLAN utilise la photo de manière novatrice. Elle interroge le statut du corps et les pressions politiques, religieuses et sociales qui s'y impriment. A travers ses Opérations-chirurgicales-performances, et ses Self-Hybridations, ORLAN questionne la fatalité génétique et les canons esthétiques imposés aux femmes dans notre société, en investissant simultanément leurs réalités physiques, sensibles et virtuelles grâce aux techniques scientifiques, biologiques et informatiques les plus performantes comme la chirurgie et les biotechnologies. Les oeuvres présentées à la Maison Européenne de la Photographie sont d'une grande puissance esthétique et subversive dont l'irrévérence est aussi éclatante aujourd'hui qu'hier.
