Interview with Veronica Leto

Art and Design's 2020 Foundations Student of the Year!

October 10 - 28

Brutal Whimsy - Contemporary Art History - Kyle Stoneman, Ph.d, Lecturer

Description

Yasumasa Morimura, Ambiguous Beauty, 1995. Morimura calls attention to gendered cultural identities through recreations of iconic images from art history and popular culture in which he substitutes himself as the main subject. In 'Ambiguous Beauty,' Morimura mimics the American icon Marilyn Monroe in her first 'Playboy' pin-up. He dons a wig, heavy makeup and fake breasts to play the part. The obvious falseness of these prosthetics, the masculinity of his body and his Japanese facial features disrupt the charade.
