  • Overview 2008–2020 Karina-Sirkku Kurz
    Overview 2008–2020 Karina-Sirkku Kurz Karina-Sirkku Kurz is fascinated by the human body, both its physicality together with its sensorial awareness — its capacity as an object and a subject simultaneously. In her work she approaches this phenomenon and explores how people experience human form. Kurz’ photographic gaze is neither fattering nor judg­ mental but akin to an adaptive lyricism. Her images, which may carry visual perplexity, oscillate between expressions of dis­ comfort and tenderness. Photography remains her primary medium, however, be­ sides its visual delivery an underlayer of its sculptural aspects coexists. In this regard, the occasional hand­built objects and surface of the photographs reveal her work's haptic potential. When Kurz is exhibiting, she is carefully considering different printing methods and a respective type of presentation for her work, which emphasises the physicality and the materiality of every single piece. Karina-Sirkku Kurz is a German-Finnish artist and photographer. She studied in Bremen, Lahti, and Helsinki, where she earned her Master’s degree from the department of photography at Aalto University. Currently, she lives in Berlin. 2 2015–2019 SUPERNATURE The photographic work in SUPERNATURE centres on the concept of the body as a malleable, sculptural entity. In this manner, aesthetic plastic surgery serves as an important context — a highly invasive practice, which revolves around designing and restructuring one‘s physical appearance according to specifc visual ideals. How does reshaping the appearance of the body affect one‘s self­image? Additionally, how are these corporal inter­ ventions experienced — which indelibly alter internal tissue, membrane, and fesh? In her approach the artist elicits concepts from the book Our Strange Body (2Ο14) by dutch philosopher Jenny Slatman.

(2015). Anorexia and the City : special Significance of the Urban Environment in Eating Disorder Memoirs. W: M. Kowalczyk-Piaseczna, M. Mamet-Michalkiewicz (red.), "Urban amazement" (S. 155-170). Katowice : Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Śląskiego. Nina Augustynowicz UNIVerSITY OF SiLESIA Anorexia and the City: Special Significance of the Urban Environment in Eating Disorder Memoirs AbSTRACT: The article examines a book of memoirs belonging to a larger group of textual representations of individual struggle with anorexia in order to shed light on the city as a crucial character in the account of the disease. Kid Rex: The Inspiring True Account of a Life Salvaged from Anorexia, Despair and Dark Days in New York City (2008) by Laura Moisin is one of many recent publications touching upon the subject of eating disorders penned by and depicting the life of young upper middle class big city women. First notable books of this kind appeared around 1980, while since the beginning of this century we have been observing a steady increase in this respect, resulting in the proliferation of these personal narratives in popular culture. In accordance with the research suggesting that the incidence of eating disorders is higher in urban areas, publications of this kind all seem to refer to such environments; however, the aforementioned book could be considered special here as it portrays the deep-reaching relations between witnessing the events of September 11 attacks and the development of the disease.

FOREWORD When Hilde Bruch visited the Mayo Clinic in 1956, it was my privilege to serve as her escort. We visited the Clinic's anorexia nervosa patients and, on that day, we began a dialogue that would continue nearly 30 years. Among her many talents, Dr. Bruch was a skillful clinical interviewer; more than that, however, she was a careful and caring communicator. In interacting with patients with eating disorders, she conveyed her own determination to find truth, and demonstrated her willingness to experiment, to challenge, to confront, and to overcome.

    University of South Carolina Scholar Commons University Libraries Award for Undergraduate Research Undergraduate Student Works Spring 2020 Hilde Bruch: Life, Contributions, and Legacy Savannah E. Bagwell Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarcommons.sc.edu/libraries_award Part of the History Commons “Hilde Bruch: Life, Contributions, and Legacy” Savannah E. Bagwell with Dr. Jessica Elfenbein HIST 300-001 Spring 2020 Hilde Bruch was a German-American researcher and psychologist most revered for her contributions to the study of eating disorders in America. Throughout her eighty years of life, Bruch helped her family escape Nazi Germany, made significant contributions to the study of obesity in children, and pioneered an innovative and rebellious approach to the treatment of anorexia nervosa in patients. The first section of this paper offers a biographical sketch of Bruch, paying special attention to her upbringing, education and life as a researcher in the early- to-mid-twentieth century. The second section of this paper highlights Bruch’s contributions to the study of eating disorders, beginning with her work in childhood obesity and finishing with her seminal work in anorexia nervosa. The third section of this paper places special emphasis on the significance of Bruch’s contributions to the study of eating disorders in America in the late- twentieth century. Hilde Bruch was born on March 11, 1904 in the town of Dülken, Germany, the third of seven children born to Hirsch and Adele Bruch. Bruch’s father was a successful cattle dealer and her mother was an active member of the Jewish community. Bruch and her six siblings were all educated in a small Jewish elementary school.
