Description
The human body is a battleground, shaped by politics, concept, and the digital age. Our relationship with the body is complex, oscillating between fantasy and reality, beauty and tyranny. This book explores the diverse ways in which photographers represent the human form, from art and fashion to science and vernacular photography. Featuring over 360 photographs, including works by notable artists such as Nobuyoshi Araki, Bettina Rheims, and Cindy Sherman, as well as contributions from scientists and everyday photographers, this book delves into the ways in which our imaging of the body reflects our relationship with it. An accompanying essay by psychologist Professor David Sander sheds light on the neurological representation of our own bodies. By examining the ways in which the human body is represented and shared, this book offers a thought-provoking exploration of our modern understanding of the body.
