Sorry for any cross posting... Body Anxiety: Woman As Bearer Of The Look | Leah Schrager and Jennifer Chan
Review by lauragonzalez In a psychoanalytic review of the online exhibition Body Anxiety, curated by Leah Schrager and Jennifer Chan, Laura González explores fear, symptom, sublimation and the pleasure of looking in relation to the body of the artists shown. "Fear is easily attributable to a cause—we fear something in particular. Anxiety, however, can be described as fear without the source. Yet, anxiety is also a safety mechanism. Without it, we would walk in the face of danger. In the online exhibition Body Anxiety, curated by Leah Schrager and Jennifer Chan, the disquiet is experienced in the flesh, whether this is as a symptom or sublimation." http://www.furtherfield.org/features/reviews/body-anxiety-woman-bearer-look
