The Disabled Body in Contemporary Art
Ann Millett-Gallant
The Disabled Body in Contemporary Art is the first book to cross the disciplines of art history and disability studies. Millett-Gallant visually analyzes images of the body in visual culture—from painting, sculpture, photography, and performance art to medical displays to the nineteenth- and twentieth-century freak show—placing the work of disabled and non-disabled artists in critical dialogue. Pursuing the agenda of disability studies, this book examines western art history through a new lens and draws parallels to sexism, racism, classism, and heterosexism/homophobia.
