1. Representing the Subject explores the work of a§sample of twentieth century verbal and visual artists§who challenge Western constructions of the self and Woman in their innovative self-representations. §These artists include: Gertrude Stein (1874-1946),§Claude Cahun (1894-1954), Zora Neale Hurston§(1901-1960), Frida Kahlo (1907-1954), Lyn Hejinian§(b. 1941), Gloria Anzaldúa (b. 1942), Cindy Sherman§(b. 1954) and Ruth Behar (b. 1956). For many, the§abundance of self-representations produced by women§in the twentieth century reinforces the stereotype§that women cannot help being autobiographical. Much§of the work discussed in this book, however,§transcends the personal sphere and extends into the§realm of cultural critique. Self-representational§works allow the creator to occupy dual positions, as§both subject and object; this provides a unique§insight into the self/Other dynamic that makes§subjectivity possible. Representing the Subject§investigates how the aforementioned artists§understand the constitution of subjectivity, more§than just their particular experience of subjectivity.
