Angela Freiberger “Organs without Bodies"
Frederico Sève Gallery/latincollector
This event has ended.
“Organs without Bodies” (2009) is Angela Freiberger’s most recent installation, consisting of a series of marble urinals and basins with kidneys, lungs, heart, eye, and brain, carved onto their surfaces as imprints or low relief, referencing Zizek’s Organs without Bodies (OwB), a reversal of the Deleuzian Body without Organs. For Deleuze, the BwO alludes to an in-between state of aesthetic and organic form, between seeing and touching, thought and gesture; not a space or within a space, but a network of moving intensities. Freiberger’s autonomous organs also points to a reversal, in which intensities are objectified, referring to the escaped subject within every organ, a subject dominated by the object, “an organ without a body.”
