Description
Jaws must drop— even those of sophisticated or jaded denizens of the contemporary art world— when confronted with the funny, subversive, and outrageous activities of French artist Orlan (b. 1947). She's based in Paris where, over the course of a couple of decades, her photographic creations and her event-based artworks have sparked debate among feminists, and among those concerned with medical ethics as well as issues of sexuality, beauty, subjectivity, gender and technology. This oversize book gives full treatment to her life and work.
