Book Synopsis The Power and Fluidity of Girlhood in Henry Darger's Art by : Leisa Rundquist
Download or read book The Power and Fluidity of Girlhood in Henry Darger's Art written by Leisa Rundquist and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is the first to examine Henry Darger's conceptual and visual representation of "girls" and girlhood. Specifically, Leisa Rundquist charts the artist's use of little girl imagery-his direct appropriations from mainstream sources as well as girls modified to meet his needs-in contexts that many scholars have read as puerile and psychologically-disturbed. Consequently, this inquiry qualifies the intersexed aspects of Darger's protagonists as well as addresses their inherent cute and little associations that signal multivocal meanings often in conflict with each other. Rundquist engages Darger's art through thematic analyses of the artist's writings, mature works, collages, and ephemeral materials. This book will be of particular interest to scholars in art history, art and gender studies, sociology, and contemporary art"--
