This publication has been produced on the occasion of the retrospective exhibition at the Museum der Moderne Salzburg, and presents the first comprehensive retrospective of the work of Carolee Schneemann (American, b. 1939), bringing together over 300 works spanning her prolific six-decade career. As one of the most groundbreaking artists of the second half of the twentieth century, Schneemanns pioneering investigations into the social construction of the female body and the sexual and cultural biases implicit in traditional art historical narratives have had an indelible impact on subsequent generations of artists. Carolee Schneemann: Kinetic Painting begins with rarely seen examples of the artists early paintings from the 1950s, charting their evolution into assemblages made in the 1960swhich integrated found objects, mechanical elements, and painterly interventions. A central protagonist of New York Citys downtown avant-garde community, Schneemann explored hybrid art forms that culminated in experimental theater events. She was a co-founder of the innovative Judson Dance Theater and the first visual artist to choreograph for the ensemble. During this period, Schneemann began to position her own body in her work with the intent of performing the roles of both image-maker and image. Responding to representations of sexuality made predominantly from the perspective of male artists, Schneemanns provocative pieces foregrounded her body in ways that challenged prevailing attitudes about female sexuality. In parallel, Schneemanns outrage over the atrocities of the Vietnam War are starkly reflected in several of her works from the mid-1960s. The exhibition grounds Schneemanns oeuvre within the context of her lifelong commitment to painting and action, tracing the early developments that would lead to her iconic performances and films from the 1960s and 1970s, through to her multimedia installations from the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s exploring feminist iconography, intimacy, and personal loss, as well as political disasters, captivity, and the destruction of war.

"Edited by art historian Branden W. Joseph, the texts span diverse formats: included are journal entries, criticism, poems, essays and performance notes culled primarily from short-run magazines such as Caterpillar, Film Culture, The Fox, Manipulations and Matter, as well as academic journals such as Performing Arts Journal and Art Journal and mainstream media outlets including the New York Times and the Village Voice. The book serves as a companion to Schneemann's two earliest books - 'Parts of a Body House Book' and 'Cézanne, She Was a Great Painter' - offering new perspectives on the artist's life, work and ideas through many writings that have never been reproduced in their original form. It features Schneemann's reflections on her own works, including 'Meat Joy,' 'Divisions and Rubble,' and 'Kitch's Last Meal.'--Artbook& website (viewed on February 12, 2018). "'Uncollected Texts' draws together a number of Carolee Schneemann's earliest writings - many exceedingly rare and several publishered here for the first time - ranging from letters to the editor to dream journals, film criticism, satirical poems, detailed discussions of her art, and pointed feminist critiques. Dating from the mid-1950s to the early 1980s, the writings gathered in this volume shed light on some of Schneemann's most important artistic achievements, including her most famous 'kinetic theater' piece, 'Meat Joy'; anti-Vietnam War works such as 'Snows'; the multimedia performance 'Up to and Including Her Limits'; and the double-screen film 'Kitch's Last Meal'. Frequently referencing one another, the assembled writings create a densely interwoven tapestry of cross-references that provide unique insights into Schneemann's artistic development while also foregrounding the artist's uniquely poetic style."
