Jeanne Dunning : Bodies of Work

Abstract

Palmer discusses the position Dunning's work takes in the power relations of gender, the art world and of the viewer toward the work of art. Viegener relates the artist's cibachromes to advertising, feminism and Freudian theory; Blinderman fragments his text in response to Dunning's enlarged "details" of the body, and interleaves a number of authors (Burroughs, Deleuze & Guattari, Ballard, Duchamp, Fried) with his own remarks about Dunning's preoccupation with hair and body parts.
