The book investigates art that explores the limits of the body in relation to the surrounding world and reveals the embodied character of human experience.Lavishly illustrated and accompanied by essays that situate the exhibition in the context of contemporary art, this volume is the second in the Kemper Art Museum’s Screen Arts and New Media Aesthetics series, inaugurated in 2006.
