Uneasy Bodies, Femininity and Death: Representing the Female Corpse in Fashion Photography and Selected Contemporary Artworks
Uneasy bodies, femininity and death: Representing the female corpse in fashion photography and selected contemporary artworks. by Thelma van Rensburg 88270442 Dissertation submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for MASTERS OF ARTS degree in FINE ARTS In the DEPARTMENT OF VISUAL ARTS FACULTY OF HUMANITIES UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA SUPERVISOR: Dr Johan Thom August 2016 © University of Pretoria THELMA VAN RENSBURG ABSTRACT This mini-dissertation serves as a framework for my own creative practice. In this research paper my intention is to explore, within a feminist reading, representations of the female corpse in fashion photography and art. The cultural theorist Stuart Hall’s theories on the concept of representation are utilised to critically analyse and interogate selected images from fashion magazines, which depicts the female corpse in an idealised way. Such idealisation manifests in Western culture, in fashion magazines, as expressed in depictions of the attractive/ seductive/fine-looking female corpse. Fashion photographs that fit this description are critically contrasted and challenged to selected artworks by Penny Siopis and Marlene Dumas, alongside my own work, to explore how the female corpse can be represented, as strategy to undermine the aesthetic and cultural objectification of the female body. Here the study also explores the selected artists’ utilisation of the abject and the grotesque in relation to their use of artistic mediums and modes of production as an attempt to create ambiguous and conflicting combinations of attraction and repulsion (the sublime aesthetic of delightful horror), thereby confronting the viewer with the notion of the objectification of the decease[d] feminine body as object to-be-looked-at. -

The Contemporary Relevance of Split Portraiture
University of Reading The contemporary relevance of split portraiture Rereading Marlene Dumas and Francis Bacon PhD in Fine Art Reading School of Art Hoi Yee Chau August 2019 Declaration I confirm that this is my own work and the use of all material from other sources has been properly and fully acknowledged. Hoi Yee Chau Abstract This thesis starts from the premise that I consider there to be an increase in split portraiture, and that this is because it speaks to certain conditions in modern and contemporary art. ‘Split portraiture’ is a term I use throughout and it means an artwork created on more than one surface; the work could be on panels, screens or any other surfaces with its specificity. My objectives are to investigate the specificity of this particular type of art practice, to discuss modern and contemporary subjects revealed in it, and to study the change in identification and in the way aggressiveness is perceived in the light of Lacanian discourse. I identify the specificity of split portraits including the discontinuity, split, the multiplication of certain elements and the repetition in the creation process. I also argue that vacillation, emptiness, the split, and the traumatic are present in contemporary subjectivity. In addition, I find an important element in my practice -- aggressiveness -- is concealed in the single-panel portraits whereas it manifests in split portraits. The contribution of this thesis is four-fold. First, this thesis addresses the specificity of the split portrait which has been extensively discussed in the literature. Secondly, this thesis is among the first to enrich the understanding of split portraiture related to art practice in the light of Lacanian discourse. -
