This thesis offers an analysis of the presence and representations of anality in contemporary art. The works analyzed here are grouped around three central axes: the first one investigates the relationship between sex and politics, the second is dedicated to the links between excretion and the industrial production system, the third one proposes a link between eroticism and ecology. In the first axis, we propose a path that goes through the relationship between matriarchy and patriarchy and comes to contemporary queer theory. In this context, we study the artistic and activist pornterrorist production. The second axis takes up the historical process of sanitizing cities and the Freudian formulations on the anal character to create a context for the analysis of works by Piero Manzoni, Wim Delvoye, Paul McCarthy and Andres Serrano. The last axis tries to create resonances between the philosophy of Gilbert Simondon, The solar anus, a short essay by Georges Bataille, the pictorial production by Jakub Julian Ziolkowski and the video Cooking, by Tunga, based on Simondon’s concept of order of magnitude, from which we try to unravel the relationships of the anus with the cosmos in contemporary artistic production.

Abstract
This thesis offers an analysis of the presence and representations of anality in contemporary art. The works analyzed here are grouped around three central axes: the first one investigates the relationship between sex and politics, the second is dedicated to the links between excretion and the industrial production system, the third one proposes a link between eroticism and ecology. In the first axis, we propose a path that goes through the relationship between matriarchy and patriarchy and comes to contemporary queer theory. In this context, we study the artistic and activist pornterrorist production. The second axis takes up the historical process of sanitizing cities and the Freudian formulations on the anal character to create a context for the analysis of works by Piero Manzoni, Wim Delvoye, Paul McCarthy and Andres Serrano. The last axis tries to create resonances between the philosophy of Gilbert Simondon, The solar anus, a short essay by Georges Bataille, the pictorial production by Jakub Julian Ziolkowski and the video Cooking, by Tunga, based on Simondon’s concept of order of magnitude, from which we try to unravel the relationships of the anus with the cosmos in contemporary artistic production.File | Dimensione del file | Formato | |
