Addressing the work of artists including Mark Morrisroe, Robert Blanchon and Felix Gonzalez-Torres through the interrelated themes of sickness and mortality, desire and sexual identity, love and loss, Fiona Johnstone shows how the self-representational practices of artists with HIV and AIDS offered a richly imaginative response to the limitations of early AIDS imagery. Johnstone argues that the AIDS epidemic changed the very nature of visual representation and artistic practice, necessitating a radical new approach to conceptualising and visualising the human form. An extended epilogue considers the ongoing art historicization of the epidemic, re-contextualising the book's themes in relation to contemporary photographic works. More than just a historical discussion of the art of the AIDS crisis, AIDS and Representation contributes to an emergent body of scholarship on the visual representation of illness. Expanding the established genre of the autopathography or illness narrative beyond the predominantly textual, this important contribution to art history and the medical humanities sensitively unpicks the entanglements between aesthetic form and the expression of lived experiences of critical and chronic ill health"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a AIDS (Disease) in art. 650 0 $a AIDS (Disease) and art $z United States. 650 0 $a AIDS (Disease) $x Patients $z United States $v Portraits. 650 0 $a Portraits, American $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Self-portraits, American $y 20th century. 650 7 $a AIDS (Disease) and art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00793981 650 7 $a AIDS (Disease) in art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00793991 650 7 $a AIDS (Disease) $x Patients. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00793864 650 7 $a Portraits, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01072342 650 7 $a Self-portraits, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01111850 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Portraits. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423831 776 08 $i Online version: $a Johnstone, Fiona. $t AIDS and representation $d London : Bloomsbury Visual Arts, 2023 $z 9781350201194 $w (DLC) 2022048174 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117023242.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F9B717B256B111EEB3013A8641ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
