8 WOMEN - Schorr necklace
Collier Schorr's latest book, 8 Women, presents work spanning from the mid-90s to the present day. In her early works, the American artist used appropriated fashion magazine advertisements to address issues of fatherhood and desire; the works introduced a female gaze into the debate on female representation. Appropriation was Collier Schorr's primary medium, and in a sense she returns to it, taking her own commissioned fashion images and folding them into a dialogue with other works.
This work features a variety of subjects, all involved in performance, whether as artists, models or musicians.
Working between exits and tear-leaf manipulations, Schorr asks who are the women who wish to be looked at.
