Famed for her performances and exhibition openings, Vanessa Beecroft presents the evidence of these events in videos and photographic stills. Her work inhabits a realm where the lines between fashion, performance art, voyeurism and feminist commentary blur. Scantily clad and sometimes thinly disguised women are placed before our eyes, barely moving, and we as the viewers are confronted with a human painting. As Collier Schorr has said of the artist "Beecroft is interested in the aesthetics of how women look when they are looked at, and her body-conscious projects encourage alienation between model, artist and audience." The artist herself asserts: "I am interested in the difference between what I expect and what actually happens." (In: B. Riemschneider and U. Grosenick (eds.), 'Art at the Turn of the Millenium', Cologne 1999, p. 66).
