About this book

"The American-born Dorothy Iannone occupies a distinct place as an artist in the second half of the twentieth century. Her oeuvre includes painting, visual narrative, autobiographical texts, and films. Since the 1960s she has been seen as a pioneering spirit against censorship, and one who supports free love and autonomous female sexuality. This retrospective catalogue illustrates the intermediality and radical subjectivty of this unique artistic opus, and aims to highlight the innovative energy of Dorothy Iannone's art, revealing the art historical implications of her imagery. The catalogue contains around two hundred illustrations of her works as wll as numerous photographs from the artists' personal archive, which are published here for the first time."
