Psychosomatics and Power in Corporeal Art: strategies of resistance in the context of British healthcare

我的研究分析了20世纪80年代和90年代英国艺术家的作品，旨在研究英国向新自由主义医疗体系的过渡。推进艺术史的干预到“心身”的研究，我问如何心身美学在三个“correctly”艺术家的工作，在英国的过渡到新自由主义治理的早期工作，可以建议新的阅读如何通过医疗机构的新自由主义权力工程，以产生不自由和不平等。本研究将艺术史分析与心身跨学科研究相结合，寻求新的策略来抵抗新自由主义医疗制度的暴力。

My research analyses the work of British artists from the 1980s and 1990s with a view to examining Britain's transition to a neoliberal healthcare system. Advancing an art-historical intervention into the study of 'psychosomatics', I ask how psychosomatic aesthetics in the work of three 'corporeal' artists, working in the early years of Britain's transition to neoliberal governance, can suggest new readings of how neoliberal power works through medical institutions to produce unfreedom and inequalities. Bringing art-historical analysis to bear on trans-disciplinary studies of the psychosomatic, this research seeks new strategies of resistance to the violence of neoliberal healthcare regimes.
