The Artist's Body examines a selection of the most significant players who have used their bodies to create art This definitive work charts the evolution of an influential movement that continues to provoke controversy today Over 250 images of performance, painting, photography, sculpture and installation bring together the largely untold story of these influential works with clear, insightful, explanatory texts A survey by Amelia Jones, a leading authority on body and performance art, illustrates the genre’s inimitable insight into the social and culture upheavals of the last sixty years Includes work from Carolee Schneemann, Yoko Ono, Chris Burden, Ana Mendieta, Vito Acconci, Marina Abramović, Matthew Barney, Marc Quinn, Tracey Emin, Mona Hatoum and many more
Beginning with such key artists as Marcel Duchamp and Jackson Pollock, this book examines a selection of the most significant players who have used their bodies to create their art – among them, in the 1960s Carolee Scheemann, Rudolf Schwarzkogler, Yoko Ono; in the 1970s, Chris Burden, Ana Mendieta, Vito Acconci, Marina Abramovic; up to the turn of the millennium, Matthew Barney, Marc Quinn, Tracey Emin and Mona Hatoum.
The Artists Body is divided into survey (by Amelia Jones), works (each work is accompanied by an extended captions), and thematic chapters (such as Painting Bodies, Gesturing Bodies) from critics and writers who helped shape the movement.
