Judith in the Fine Arts: The Appeal of the
Archetypal Androgyne. The head of General
Molotov (all works 1994-2005), for example--a bust of a man whose green
plastic bib, studded with brass tacks, suggested a military uniform--had
been rudely bisected by a piece of glass topped with a lump of foam,
while the figure in Most Isolated Human Being was an armless,
gold-painted androgyne whose coral-colored brains appeared to be
spilling out of its head. The fulfillment of desire then consists
in the (re)union of two complementary bodies--the male with male, the
female with the female, and the androgyne with his or her other half,
once more forming an originary whole. |
