NEIL BELOUFA This Exhibition by Neïl Beloufa (*1985) Was Amazingly Staged NEIL BELOUFA This exhibition by Neïl Beloufa (*1985) was amazingly staged. The frst part was in front of the Schirn’s main entrance and freely accessible from the street during opening hours. Visitors were encouraged to sit on one of around a dozen long pink foam-flled rubbery supports to look through a medieval-style visor onto vertical screens on which young members of the military from various countries talked about their lives and loves in video chats with the artist. Surrounding them were sculptures that stopped just short of faux-goth robotic fguration, as well as some ropes literalising the idea of interconnection. Upstairs, in the second part of the exhibition, the soldiers’ stories were woven together into an “art fction” video, set within an installation of Plexiglas and aluminium that forced the viewer to approach by going to and fro, as in an airport security line, before reaching the screening space. Here, the audio recordings sometimes overlaid videogame replays or acted scenes, mixing commentary and narrative; at one point, visitors saw the chat column of the artist’s Skype interface, where he explained the project was “about how militaries (not Hollywood) present themselves”. This layering and openness multiplied the questions in play, rather than reducing the project to a mission accomplished. Globalisation, as we are so often told, shrinks distance. So why is war so often treated as remote, even though we hear about it all the time? But that was not really or only what Beloufa’s exhibition was “about”, which was much more various: love and youth and technology and workout culture and self-representation and patriotism and cultural conditioning and the future and who the audience is and how everyone is connected and wants to be loved and some people are closer to death than others. One of the most affecting aspects of the show was, however, its formal design, which came across in the emphasis on looking, as the third act made clear. This was when viewers entered the round indoor balcony overlooking the rotunda, where they could look down onto the vertical screens and see others watching and listening to the videos below. Behold the spilled-open panopticon, the surveillance society from the fipside, the tourist/art-viewer’s gaze and projection onto the cultural fgure of the soldier. “I grew up very sheltered and joining the military I have met all different people from around the world,” one of them opines. Differences elide. It’s too self-centred to think it’s about me and you, though in some sense it is, and we too are part of an enormous machine that only sometimes lets us see our place within it.

    DC COMICS v. Mark TOWLE United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit. September 23, 2015. 9 IKUTA, Circuit Judge. 10 We are asked to decide whether defendant Mark Towle infringed DC Comics' exclusive rights under a copyright when he built and sold replicas of the Batmobile, as it appeared in the 1966 television show Batman and the 1989 film BATMAN. Holy copyright law, Batman! I 12 DC Comics (DC) is the publisher and copyright owner of comic books featuring the story of the world-famous character, Batman. Since his first comic book appearance in 1939, the Caped Crusader has protected Gotham City from villains with the help of his sidekick Robin the Boy Wonder, his utility belt, and of course, the Batmobile. 13 Originally introduced in the Batman comic books in 1941, the Batmobile is a fictional, high-tech automobile that Batman employs as his primary mode of transportation. The Batmobile has varied in appearance over the years, but its name and key characteristics as Batman's personal crimefighting vehicle have remained consistent. Over the past eight decades, the comic books have continually depicted the Batmobile as possessing bat-like external features, ready to leap into action to assist Batman in his fight against Gotham's most dangerous villains, and equipped with futuristic weaponry and technology that is "years ahead of anything else on wheels." 14 Since its creation in the comic books, the Batmobile has also been depicted in numerous television programs and motion pictures. Two of these depictions are relevant to this case: the 1966 television series Batman, starring Adam West, and the 1989 motion picture BATMAN, starring Michael Keaton.

  • Cold War Fantasies: Testing the Limits of the Familial Body Wonder
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by E-space: Manchester Metropolitan University's Research Repository Cold War Fantasies: Testing the Limits of the Familial Body Wonder Woman 1947-1967 was written by Robert Kanigher - the longest writing stint of any in her seventy year history. Kanigher revamped the character in 1958 to fit a more cosy post-Wertham storyline where she lived a fantasy existence on Paradise Island. The images, drawn mainly by Ross Andru and Mike Esposito softened Wonder Woman's image from a warrior woman to a teen romance heroine with a doe-eyes and full lips. Instead of warrior boots she wore Greek sandals tied up with straps around her legs. Kanigher also introduced more stories of life on Paradise Island and they must have been popular with readers because they featured in sixteen out of the twenty-three issues in this era. Also Wonder Woman appeared in the top thirty best selling comics with a readership of over 200,000.1 The demands by readers for more of these stories in letters pages and within the storylines themselves, demonstrate they must have hailed, some aspects of readers' lives in Cold War America. Yet despite her popularity, this era is one of the most overlooked in Wonder Woman scholarship, possibly because the stories were regarded as fairytales told to a teenage female readership. Yet this era throws up some fascinating cultural paradoxes. Wonder Woman posed a problem in 1950s and '60s because she challenged the perceived role of women as reliant on men in family life and the job market.

Female Friendships in Superhero Comics, 1940s to 1960s and Today Hannah Costelle Dr. Jill Parrott, Department of English and Theatre Comic book superheroines are the goddesses of modern times; they are the ideal beautiful, powerful women of America’s collective imagination whom girls have looked up to and emulated for decades. But these iconic examples of womanhood usually lack one of the key elements of humanity that enrich real women’s lives, an element that has been proven to increase women’s autonomy and confidence: female friendships. Wonder Woman may have led armies of female friends in the 1940s when superheroines first appeared in the comics pages, but by the 1950s and ‘60s, female characters confiding in one another and working together in the comics was a rarity.
