Paafrath; StelarcBinding: PaperbackPublished: JP Publications, 1984Condition:Book: Very goodJacket: No dust jacketPages: GoodMarkings: Previous ownerThis compelling work presents a critical examination of the human form in an age of technological augmentation. It argues for a re-evaluation of biological limitations, questioning the future of the body as we know it. The text chronicles Stelarc's provocative artistic interventions, including his renowned body suspension performances, which challenge conventional notions of physical autonomy and identity.
