The representation of the nude in art remained for many centuries a victory of fiction over fact. Beautiful, handsome, flawless its great success was to distance the unclothed body from any uncomfortably explicit taint of sexuality, eroticism or imperfection. In this newly updated study, Frances Borzello contrasts the civilized, sanitized, perfected nude of Kenneth Clarks classic, The Nude: A Study in Ideal Form (1956), with todays depictions: raw, uncomfortable, both disturbing and intriguing. Grittier and more subtle, depicting variously gendered bodies, the new nude asks awkward questions and behaves provocatively. It is a very naked nude, created to deal with the issues and contradictions that surround the body in our time. Borzello explores the role of the nude in twentieth- and twenty-first-century art, looking at the work of a wide range of international artists creating contemporary nudes. Her fascinating text is complemented by a profusion of well-chosen, unusual and beautifully reproduced illustrations. The story begins with a tale of life, death and resurrection an investigation into how and why the nude has survived and flourished in an art world that prematurely announced its demise. Subsequent chapters take a thematic approach, focusing in turn on Body art and Performance art, the new perspectives of women artists, the nude in painting, portraiture and sculpture and in its most extreme and graphic expressions that intentionally push the boundaries of both art and our comfort zone. The final chapter illustrates radical developments in art and culture over the last decade, focusing in particular on artworks by women, trans artists and artists of colour. Borzello links these works to their art-historical and political predecessors, demonstrating the continually unending capacity of the nude to disrupt traditional hierarchies and gender categories in life and art.

New to the simmering streets of Miami, globetrotting artist, Adam Straker, captivates photographer, Gwenyth Mason. Despite their differences, a mutual attraction boils over. Then Adam discovers exactly who Gwen is and abruptly hes back peddling as if shes suddenly become radioactive. Confiding in her mother about him is useless. A turbulent divorce from Gwens father has left Annalyns opinion of artists at rock bottom, especially artists as intensely focused as Adam. When Adam reevaluates his pursuit of Gwen, things seem to be back on even keel...until Gwen stumbles across a stunning nude portrait curiously tucked away in his studio closet. Unearthed, the painting is labeled a modern masterpiece by critics and launches Adam to stardom. But Adams limelight is fraught with as much conflict as acclaim. Now surrounded by people with their own agendas for The Nudeincluding a powerful billionaire, a savvy art dealer, and a restless business partnerAdams refusal to part with it only increases the pressure hes under. Then there are his secret meetings in big cities and hushed phone calls in the wee hours, and Annalyns insistence that Gwen walk away before he shatters her heart completely. When Gwen discovers instead that there is a link between The Nude and her own California childhood, she starts digging for the truth. No one is talking, however, not even Adam, and their relationship is pushed to the brink when Gwen finally unearths the bizarre secrets the nude is keeping, and along the way resurrects a nemesis thought long gone. Theres serious fallout from Gwens innocent curiosity just months before, and life turns taut and perilous, with twists and revelations right up, literally, to the last page. Book Review: When the secrets behind an intriguing nude portrait trickle out into the open, a photographer and her artist lover must grapple with the fallout in Sisus masterful debut. Photographer Gwen Mason has just opened up her own studio in Miami and hopes to find her niche in the trendy city. Though she lives with her divorcee mother and doesnt think shes interested in a relationship, meeting upcoming artist Adam Straker changes all that. Adams paintings are causing quite a stir in the art world, and Gwen knows shes found something special. He might be 20 years her senior, but that doesnt stop the couple from embarking on a passionate affair. Yet one of Adams paintings arouses Gwens curiosity like no other; its a striking portrait of a nude woman, one Adam keeps hidden and pointedly refuses to discuss. When Adam has the chance to land a spot in a prestigious New York City gallery, Gwen believes the painting will secure his place and she shows The Nude to Adams manager without Adams knowledge. Though the painting clinches the New York deal, it starts an explosive chain reaction for Adam and Gwen. In the coming weeks, decades-old secrets of destroyed lives and loves, of tragedy and revenge, of greed and madness, are revealed at a cost no one could have foreseen. Sisu nicely ramps up the suspense with her excellent pacing while her vibrant depiction of the art world breathes energy and authenticity into the narrative. Gwen and Adams stormy relationship rings true, though delving into Adams point of view earlier would have delivered a more well-balanced story. Gwens feistiness and sometimes bad choices make her sympathetic and fully human, and readers will root for her to discover her past and keep her man. But it is Sisus analysis of the creative process that forms the heart of this novel; she explores the artistic mentality in all its bizarre and often-misunderstood facets and digs deep into the dark underbelly of creative genius and its unintended consequences. An enthralling first novel. - Kirkus Discoveries
