Sarah Lucas
Beschrijving
Bol
This monograph features an extensive overview of the unusual photographs, sculptures, and installations by Sarah Lucas (*1962 in London), which often appear raw and aggressive. In her works, the artist frequently unmasks the chauvinism of slang. Even though it might seem acceptable to describe a young woman as a ''chicken,'' Lucas's provocative work entitled Chicken Knickers, however, reveals hidden associations and, with the help of dry British humor, irrevocably strips the expression of any cuteness. Another significant element of Lucas's oeuvre are her androgynous self-portraits, in which the artist, with challenging gaze and a cigarette dangling from her lips, assumes the cool poses of male stars such as Keith Richards and then breaks them down using accessories with female connotations.
