Until, one day, a handsome prince came riding by...
Luce Irigaray is one of the foremost philosophers and feminist
thinkers of our day. Her work has had an enormous impact on the
visual arts and is widely taught and read across the field - yet
the actual implications of this influential body of thought for art
itself are rarely elucidated. What does her work really mean when
it comes to the art made by women artists? Hilary Robinson looks at
the work of groundbreaking women artists including Louise
Bourgeois, Rachel Whiteread, Bridget Riley and Jenny Saville in
light of the key strands of Irigaray's thought, from ideas of
masquerade, mimicry, morphology and the maternal to the original
notions of 'mucous' and 'the speculum' for which she is well known.
With a fine eye for the intricacies of the philospher's thought,
Robinson reveals the implications of Irigaray's work for the
relationships between gender, subjectivity, language and art.
Refuting accusations of essentialism - the belief in innate
biological gender differences - Robinson here poses the question:
if language is gendered, as Irigaray argues, and if art is a
language, what are the ramifications for the visual 'languages'
employed by women artists now and in the future? "Reading Art,
Reading Irigaray" will be of interest to students of fine art,
visual theory, and gender studies, to students of Irigaray's work
and indeed to all those interested in the politics of art by women.
