Abstract:
This thesis explores the role of the body in contemporary art and how it is perceived in society. My research encompasses the art forms of painting, photography, fashion, performance, film, sculpture and installation. The body becomes the canvas, whether it is physically constructed in oils or cut-up, to transform into a Botticelli goddess. Painting, performance, film, video and photography all document the body’s transformation into an artificial, mechanical entity of the digital world. In contemporary art, the model can be by–passed. The artist can digitally construct the body/the subject

Abstract:
<p>Nonverbal communication such as body language is a vital component of our communication, and since scholars agree that there are some notable differences in the way men and women use body language, the study of gendered nonverbal communication as a social construction is vital to our understanding of how we create gendered identities. The aim of this paper is to investigate how social gender norms concerning body language appear in constructed communication. By studying the body language of the characters in the American sitcom Friends, and with focus on leg postures, I examine how the show
