Women as Landscape
------------------------------------------------------------------------
<Background:
Both popular movies and advertising using the filmic/visual technique
of presenting women in or as landscapes. This exhibit focuses on the
varied ways in which the female body is produced as a landscape, whether a
natural one or a commercial/urban one.
The
Ads:
The variations of this trope include (1) women's bodies incorporated as
natural landscapes (various ads), (2) women's bodies in urban landscapes (Ads
8 and 9), (3) women's bodies as landscapes presented for men to use (Ads
10-11, 21, 28). Questions: (1) What cultural values inform the trope of
the body as landscape? (2) Why are women's bodies seen as forms of the
natural landscape more often than men's bodies? (3) Can you locate similar
ads in which male bodies are utilized as landscapes? >
