Der Spiegel des Narziss

Más información sobre el libro

A major exhibition with international participants is set to grace the Galerie Taxispalais in Innsbruck. Accompanied by an extensive catalogue, it intends to interpret the popular Narcissus theme, not merely from the mythological angle - Narcissus is considered to be the godfather of painting - or as a mirror image of Freudian psychoanalysis - but in particular to place the theme in the context of gender discourse. According to one of the theses, it is only through the blurring of gender roles that a masculine physical self-awareness has come into play, which, with vain self-reflection, blatantly and radically parades a different part of the essence of feeling, somewhere between denial and delusions of grandeur, as in works by Urs Lüthi, Niklas Goldbach, Ely Kim, Helmut Schober or Anan Tzukerman. 0Exhibition: Galerie im Taxispalais, Innsbruck, Austria (1.12.2012-10.2.2013). 0.
