Is trauma encrypted or inscribed in art? Or can aesthetic practices (after-images) bring about transformation of trauma, personal trauma or historical traumas? These are some of the questions posed by major feminist art historian and cultural analyst, Griselda Pollock in her latest installation of the Virtual Feminist Museum. In closely-read case studies, she writes on artworks by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, Ana Mendieta, Louise Bourgeois, Alina Szapocznikow, Anna Maria Maiolino, Vera Frenkel, Sarah Kofman and Chantal Akerman to explore trauma and bereavement, fatal illness, first- and second-generation Holocaust experience, migration, exile and the encounter with political horror and atrocity, thusoOffering a specifically-feminist contribution to trauma studies, and a feminist psychoanalytical contribution to the study of contemporary art.
