Monica Bonvicini

Description:

Confronting the overlap between patriarchy and architecture head on, Monica Bonvicini has attracted international attention with her video Wallfucking in which a naked woman rubs her genitals against a wall protuberance and with her site-specific installations using chains, steel and leather. "Architecture is the ultimate erotic act, carry it to excess", asserts an installation in this monograph.
