Description

Explore the complex relationship between art and the female form in this academic study. Emily L. Newman examines how contemporary artists, particularly women, address the idealization of the body through their creative work. This book looks at significant themes including obesity, anorexia, bulimia, dieting, self-harm, and fatness. Through a detailed analysis, the text investigates how artists use their own bodies to critique the diet industry. It also explores the complicated reality where artists may become complicit in the very systems they aim to challenge. By looking at how art interacts with eating disorder communities both in person and online, this work provides a deep look into how these engagements can affect both the creator and the audience. This title is an essential resource for those studying gender, art history, and the social impacts of contemporary visual culture.
