Belly Landscape

Nude in the Water 
(Torso, Thighs)

1980


Karin Rosenthal (American, born in 1945 American)


  This piece is actually in the Yale University Art Gallery collection – it was one of the many and diverse "landscapes" we looked at recently in my American Studies seminar (w/ prof. Laura Barraclough).

  What does it mean for a body to be depicted as a landscape? Does this image destabilize our conceptions of bodies or does it not? What does Sullivan (or contemporary feminists) do by using the term “terrain”?

  Some juxtaposition for your thoughts.
