Body of Art is an unprecedented survey of the various ways in which the human body has been both an inspiration and a medium for artists over hundreds of thousands of years. More than simply a book of representations, the book explores the diverse manifestations of the body in art across time, cultures and media.
From Palaeolithic caves and ancient Egyptian sculptures to 21st-century painting, video and installation art, Body of Art is the only book to look at the human body in art in such expansive terms – Western and non-Western, ancient to contemporary, and spanning the spectrum from the most representative to the most abstract and conceptual.
