The Public Body

Talia Linz joined Dr Margaux Dombkins on Arts talking about  The Public Body .01 exhibition at Artspace. The Public Body is curated by Talia Linz and Alexie Glass-Cantor and explores the sexualized body and, in particular, the types of sexualized bodies that proliferate in the public sphere today – high key, orgasmic, debased, agitated, violent but also self-empowered, vulnerable, revealed, free. The exhibition features the work of 17 contemporary living artists: Abdul Abdullah, A.K. Burns, A.L. Steiner, Tianzhuo Chen, Merlin James, Pope.L, Claire Lambe, Sarah Lucas, Ryan McGinley, Carter Mull, Sterling Ruby, Mark Shorter, Justin Shoulder, Amalia Ulman, Lyndal Walker, Rohan Wealleans, and Paul Yore.
