ReplyDeleteYou have some missing primary reading that is affecting our understanding of this subject.
You do need to start with Gaze Theory and its relationship to female objectification but as a counterpoint in art history the male nude has always had dual connotations particularly in renaissance painting and sculpture and classical Greek sculpture- you need to start with this as a theme before moving onto more contemporary evolution of Gaze Theory and how this relates particularly to advertising/film and photography.
John Berger Ways of Seeing is a fundamental missing text.
Missing then also is reading on film history and theory. Start with something like How to read a Film by James Monaco.
Look at the photographer Robert Mapplethorpe, studied in the book On Photography by Graham Clarke- consider the film Fight Club- this is seminally postmodern in the way that it represents men- not as objects or stereotypes and is actually critique of these issues..
This is what’s missing- critical exploration and debate around the subject towards an end point and a clear conclusion with good fundamental theoretical understanding and better structure though chapters.

ReplyDeleteChapter 2: Judith Butler/ Foucault (about sexuality/gender/non-binaried): Queer Theory - Masculinity as a construction.
Chapter 3 - Had a movie timeline encompassing social and cultural change (so from hidden to 'in plain sight'?).
