Le corps aux abords du dessin

On the occasion of the first exhibition of a trilogy that focuses on the representation of the human body in relation to the development of media, Johnson reflects on the printing technique, its historical impact on the practices of writing and drawing, and its influence on contemporary production. The author elaborates on the works of four artists by considering drawings of the body (anatomical and artistic), notions of authorship and mediatization, and the skin as metaphor. Biographical notes.
