身體：當代藝術中的議題戰場 —— 全面修訂與更新的國際視野綜覽
針對當代藝術中身體角色進行深度剖析，本書呈獻了自 2000 年以來，以身體為核心關照的全球藝術實踐。作家暨評論家莎莉．歐萊利深入剖析了自然與科技、身分政治以及怪誕美學等領域。她詳實地追溯了身體如何從單純的創作主題，演變為藝術表達的活體媒介，並點出從當代科學突破到俄烏戰爭等社會政治與文化變遷，是如何深刻地影響了人類形態的再現方式。
從繪畫與雕塑，到裝置藝術、錄像藝術及行為藝術，歐萊利揭示了身體激發當代藝術家靈感的萬千路徑。書中收錄了跨世代的藝術名家與新銳人物，包括：瑪莉娜．阿布拉莫維奇、修．洛克、詹金．凡．扎爾、席琳．奈夏特、莎拉．盧卡斯以及沙旺達．柯比特。本書論證了人類形態至今仍是我們理解並表達自身在宇宙中定位的關鍵。

★A thorough international survey of the body's role in contemporary art, fully revised and updated
The Body in Contemporary Art presents an international survey of art made since 2000 that takes the body as its focus. Examining such areas as nature and technology, identity politics and the grotesque, writer and critic Sally O'Reilly traces the body's movement from a subject to a live medium of art, and highlights how socio-political and cultural developments, from contemporary scientific breakthroughs to the Russian-Ukranian war, have all had a profound influence on representations of the human form.
From painting and sculpture to installation, video art and performance, O'Reilly reveals the myriad ways in which the body has inspired a generation of artists. Featuring the work of both renowned and up-and-coming figures, including Marina Abramovic, Hew Locke, Jenkin van Zyl, Shirin Neshat, Sarah Lucas and Shawanda Corbett, The Body in Contemporary Art shows how the human form continues to be pivotal to our understanding and expression of our place in the universe.
International in scope with colour illustrations throughout, this edition has been comprehensively revised, with an updated selection of artists and five new chapters covering topics such as: clothing, work and economics, the nude and illness.
