Männerphantasien
2010
oil on canvas
The series Männerphantasien contains oil paintings measuring 150 cm x 120 cm (59.1" x 14.28") and consists of text extracts describing the male body found in various novels written by more or less heterosexual men. The extracts are painted in black on white canvas; the font is Times New Roman. The title is taken from Klaus Theweleit’s book Männerphantasien (Verlag Roter Stern/Stroemfeld, 1977); each painting is a stand-alone work and is titled after the name of the author of each extract.
