Time Is the Thing a Body Moves Through
Author: T Fleischmann
Publisher: Coffee House Press
ISBN: 1566895553
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
W. G. Sebald meets Maggie Nelson in an autobiographical narrative of embodiment, visual art, history, and loss. How do the bodies we inhabit affect our relationship with art? How does art affect our relationship to our bodies? T Fleischmann uses Felix Gonzáles-Torres’s artworks—piles of candy, stacks of paper, puzzles—as a path through questions of love and loss, violence and rejuvenation, gender and sexuality. From the back porches of Buffalo, to the galleries of New York and L.A., to farmhouses of rural Tennessee, the artworks act as still points, sites for reflection situated in lived experience. Fleischmann combines serious engagement with warmth and clarity of prose, reveling in the experiences and pleasures of art and the body, identity and community.

Category : Surrealism
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"Josephine Tota (1910-1996) was a seamstress and amateur artist who lived a conventional life among the Italian immigrant community in Rochester, New York. In her seventies, she spent countless hours painting in the privacy of her home, where she imbued over ninety small jewel-like paintings with the richness of her strange imagination. Tota captured and condensed anxieties accumulated over a lifetime. Her formidable paintings reference myriad art-historical and popular culture sources medieval illuminated manuscripts, early Renaissance panel paintings, the work of Surrealist icons Frida Kahlo and Salvador Dalí, fairy tales, and children s book illustrations into private images of startling immediacy and timelessness. Tota s work cannot be defined as entirely mainstream, self-taught, visionary, or surreal. It is this powerful body of work dozens of untamed paintings in egg tempera and gilding on board, completed at the end of her life that The Surreal Visions of Josephine Tota explores and advocates for inclusion into the canon of self-taught, visionary art."--from Backcover
