Samenvatting
Introductory essay by the curator of the exhibition "No More
Heroes: Unveiling Masculinity" (San Francisco Camerawork, 1991).
"The parallel development of the Industrial Revolution and the
decrease in exposure of the male body are profoundly
interconnected". The exhibition represents a radical change,
particularly in regard to the representation of the myth of
masculinity. "The male body, now more than ever, has been
identified as a site of political and ideological struggle.
Because it can be deconstructed with its patriarchal /
fratriarchal / androcentric context and redefined to challenge
the myth of a unified masculine identity."
