It is unsurprising then, that the gender politics surrounding art since the 1970s have often reflected a strongly feminist agenda. In addition, from the 1980’s, Queer Theory has also gained ground as THE MALE a lens through which to read and re read art and art history. While hardwon and significant, these developments nonetheless pose a challenge for the male nude and for the state of maleness in gene- NUDE ral. Is it still possible, for example, for a male heterosexual artist working today to produce a male nude, other than a depiction of his own body, that is not automatically sexualised, i.e., interpreted as WHAT aggressively heterosexual, or read as a gay image?

  • X-Out Boundaries Private & Public Symbolic Essay
    X-out Boundaries Private & Public Symbolic Essay 1. Introduction Gender interactions perplex human beings. Intimate unresolved space, complex background stories and taboos impede subjects’ expression, counteracting and deterring insight capacity. Hindrance to vent and to confront deeply entrenched personal events and feelings in the midst of the public arena heats the cauldron where gender inequalities are brewed and institutionalized. A reserved and excluding geography of sexuality precludes women, young women, and girls from constructing an alternative thinking, exercising their citizenship, maintaining an open dialogue, and taking subsequent empowered actions (Hubbard 2001:52). Such customary, jagged topography deflects social enrichment coming from forces that could otherwise foster untested foundations of moral progress. The symbolic essay being presented here aims to provide supplementary support to a discourse of openness and acceptance around sexuality, and to counteract double standards and consequent sex-related harassment, corruption, and crimes against women and children (Saunders 2008:1). It also intends to demonstrate that the stiff and brittle frontiers between what is private and what is public are intimately related to patriarchal values and praxis. Images, in two different categories, make up the essential product of this symbolic ethnology. They support a form of activism that aspires to elicit a collective change of consciousness in regards to the private/public dichotomy: A. Model-informants, who consented to portraiture of their erotic interactions, showing waist up nudity. B. Images that artistically compare the sexual organs of tropical plants and of humans, made possible by the voluntary posing of professional artists. The following visual-arts and accompanying research work have been assembled here in Montreal, beacon city, wherefrom women’s studies are generated, broadened, and diffused throughout the world.
