Expanded anniversary edition of this 1990 classic by America's most provocative performance artist, as outrageous, insightful and relevant as ever.
Les performances brutes et transgressives de Karen Finley ont longtemps suscité controverse et débat. Elle a présenté son art visuel, ses performances et ses pièces de théâtre à l'international. Auteure de nombreux livres, elle explore des thèmes d'intimité et de chocs sociétaux avec son style distinctif et provocateur. Son œuvre se caractérise par une forte résonance émotionnelle et une volonté de perturber les perceptions conventionnelles de l'art et de la société.
