Artscape: Anatomy

Artscape: Anatomy is three new DVDs that are now available for loan from the Learning Centre. It is a three-part series that was broadcast on ABC in April 2009.

"Anatomy is a documentary series comprised of three unusual and compelling stories - Skin, Heart and Muscle - which explore how sexuality and the body work together as driving forces in the creative process.

Episode 1 - Skin
Skin examines the 25-year collaboration between tattooist/artist eX de Medici and her subject Geoff Ostling as they negotiate the possibility of bequeathing Geoff's tattooed skin as an artwork when he dies.

Episode 2 - Heart
Heart looks at the artist/muse relationship between Jacqui Stockdale and Rose Mastroianni.

Episode 3 - Muscle
Muscle is about the relationship between Simon Yates, his partner Jo-Ann Lancaster, and their collaborator Mozes, who perform together (often in the nude) as performance/dance troupe, Acrobat." -- back covers
