Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Outlooks explores the relationship of lesbian and gay sexualities to visual representation. It reflects the richness of lesbian and gay ways of producing and reading visual culture, at the same time tackling such issues as the advantages of adopting a queer perspective on past art, the responses of lesbian and gay artists to the AIDS crisis, and society's attempts to censor homosexual art.
This volume provides a space for lesbian and gay artists to exhibit their work and discuss its relationship to sexuality. It allows for a wide ranging theoretical and historical discusion to the place of lesbians and gay men within visual cultures and shows how much has been missed by a heterosexist approach to art history and the study of culture.
Richly illustrated, Outlooks includes statements by contemporary lesbian and gay artists, photographers and performers as well as articles by art historians, cultural theorists and lesbian and gay activists.
Contributors include Emmanuel Cooper on Francis Bacon,; Richard Dellamora on Andy Warhol and postmodernism; Richard Kaye on the gay icon of St. Sebastian; Thais Morgan on lesbianism and nineteenth century aestheticism; Wendy Leeks on Ingres and the lesbian viewer; Reina Lewis and Katrina Rolley on lesbians and the fashion spread; and Simon Watney on the visual poetics of mourning.
