French sculptor Aristide Maillol (1861-1944) is sometimes referred to as the "C�zanne of sculpture" as he, like Paul C�zanne in painting, paved the way for abstraction. Though Maillol began as a painter, he produced an impressive collection of sculptures, many featuring women, over the course of his career. This book, published in conjunction with a comprehensive Maillol exhibition at the Kunsthaus Z�rich, examines how the male gaze operates in Maillol's art and the changing perceptions of this gaze from the 19th century to today. A photo essay by Franca Candrian contrasts Maillol's V�nus au collier with works by modern and contemporary women artists from the Kunsthaus Z�rich's collection. An essay by feminist art historian and curator Catherine McCormack explores the presence of art depicting female nudes - in contemporary museums. Supplemented by an introduction by Philippe B�ttner, curator of Kunsthaus Z�rich's permanent collection, the book thus offers a fresh and unique view of Maillol and his art. Text in English and German.
