CONTENTS ANTENNAE ISSUE 15 6 Mammal Thoughts The series Mammal Thoughts explores the questioning of bodily identity interweaved with philosophical self-reflection (the Cartesian Cogito). Each large format color portrait involved an intercollaborative dialogue between the photographer and the subject, encouraging the latter to reappropriate his/her own particular understanding of bodily representation through absurdity, absence, humor or eroticism while being presented as just a body. Text by Bastien Desfriches Doria 17 Flesh-Pots and Clay Bodies In this article, Courtney Lee Weida explores art practices of ceramics relating to themes of flesh and consumption. Beyond ceramic sculptures of animals and vessels used to store and serve meat, there are subtle themes and symbols of animals and flesh surrounding the clay medium. Text by Courtney Lee Weida 27 Meat: Digesting the Stranger Within Meat becomes the reference through which I weave these fragmented body parts together into literal and allusive connective tissue. I celebrate the return of my menstrual cycle by photographing my bloody menstrual pads juxtaposed to other allusions to skinned detritus—metal, rubber, mirror. Text by Cara Judea Alhadeff 41 The Biomechanics of Objects Simone Racheli’s work is challenging and visionary. Through the simulation of biomechanical objects the artist questions our relationship with the world around us, and the psychological and philosophical ties we become entangled with. Here he discusses his work in an exclusive interview with Zoe Peled. Questions by Zoe Peled Translation by Giovanni Aloi 48 The Problematic Exposure of Flesh For over a decade, plastinator Gunter von Hagen has enraged and fascinated audiences around the world through his always controversial Body Worlds shows. His work is carried out in the name of education but at times ethical considerations around his work tend to focus on the inappropriateness of some displays. We interviewed the scientist/artist as his show focusing on plastinated animals hits the road. Questions by Giovanni Aloi Text by The Institution for Plastination 58 Meat Matters Meat is the moment when what remained hidden to us is opened up. The animal's insides become outsides. Its depth of form becomes a surface, and its depth of being becomes the thin lifelessness of an object exposed. Meat makes the animal insides visible, and through sight, the animal body becomes knowable. And while meat serves as a means for us to take in the animal visually and intellectually, it also marks the moment when the animal becomes physically consumable. Text by Ron Broglio 5
