Abstract
A necrology on Canadian artist Theo Wan, who died May 1987. His
work was concerned with personal and cultural identy,
particularly the body-spirit relationship as it is socially and
institutionally defined. Wan's artistic reputation is based on a
series of photographic works, produced between '77-'79. His
initial projects explored the similarity between the medical and
aesthetical gaze. His later work was a conceptual inquiry into
the aesthetic and social limits of the pornographic image.
