Paperback. 11" X 9 1/2". xi 119pp. Mild toning and shelf wear to covers corners and edges of paper wraps. Pages are clean and unmarked. Binding is firm and sound. ABOUT THIS BOOK: This catalog explores the psychological and social implications contained in the hybrid creatures and fantastic scenarios created by contemporary artists whose works will appear in the exhibition Fairy Tales Monsters and the Genetic Imagination which opens at Nashville's Frist Center for the Visual Arts in February 2012. Curator Mark Scala's introductory essay focuses on anthropomorphism in the mythology folklore and art of many cultures as it contrasts with the dominant Western view of human exceptionalism. Scala also provides an art historical context linking the visual fabulists of today to artists of the Romantic Symbolist and Surrealist periods who sought to transcend oppositions such as rationality and intuition fear and desire the physical and the spiritual. Discussing how artists adapt traditional stories to give mythic form to the very real dilemmas of contemporary life Jack Zipes's "Fairy-Tale Collisions" centers on Paula Rego Kiki Smith and Cindy Sherman. From a generation of women who have attained prominence since the 1980s these artists alter fairy-tale imagery to subvert or rewrite social roles and codes. In "Metamorphosis of the Monstrous" Marina Warner discusses works in the exhibition in the context of historical conceptions of monsters as expressions of alterity bestiality or sinfulness. Her reminder that contemporary monster images offer "a promise and a warning about the variety heterogeneity and possible combinations and recombinations in the order of things" sets the stage for Suzanne Anker's essay punningly titled "The Extant Vamp or the Ire of It All: Fairy Tales and Genetic Engineering." Considering representations of hybrid bodies by Patricia Piccinini Janaina Tschape Saya Woolfalk and others which evoke imagined beings of the past as a way to envision the recombinant creatures that may lie in the future Anker shows how artists explore the social ethical and future implications of biological design and enhanced evolution. Accompanying an exhibition of contemporary art in which depictions of marvelous creatures and fantastic narratives provide both chills and delights the essays in Fairy Tales Monsters and the Genetic Imagination explore the meaning of this fabulist revival through the lenses of social and art history literature feminism animal studies and science.Publisher.
