Body in Pieces
The human body is a structure interwoven with external interests, internal needs, and a wide range of self-imposed demandsāits boundaries have now become porous both literally and figuratively. The publicationĀ Body in Pieces, which accompanies the exhibition of the same name, draws on in-depth essays and extensive spreads of images to showcase seven international artists who trace numerous real fragmentations of the body and its conflicted present-day reality. A body that has abandoned any idea of coherence and wholeness contains the crucial subversive potential to enable a break with normative systems and traditional notions of gender and role. The artists and authors involved in this book are focused on these key ambiguities in our modern conception of what it is to be human.
