Abstract

In the turmoil of the 1920s and '30s, Claude Cahun challenged gender stereotypes with her powerful photographs, photomontages and writings -- work that appears contemporary, or even ahead of our time, when viewed with twenty-first-century eyes. Cahun wrote poetry and prose for major French literary magazines, worked in avant-garde theatre, and was both comrade and critical outsider of the Surrealists. Her artful resistance tactics mocked and disrupted the Nazi occupiers of Jersey during the Second World War, putting her in mortal danger. Cahun worked collaboratively with Marcel Moore, her stepsister, lover and life partner, to create some of the most compelling photographs and photomontages of the period between the wars. This is the first work in English to tell the full story of Claude Cahun's art and life. It both recounts her life and analyses her complex writings and images, making them available to a wide audience. Shaw's account embeds Cahun's work in the exciting milieu of Paris between the wars and follows it into the dangerous territory of the Nazi-occupied Isle of Jersey. Using letters and diaries, Shaw brings Cahun's ideas and feelings to life and contributes to our understanding of photography, Surrealism and the histories of women artists and queer culture.

Abstract

Les photographies de Claude Cahun (1894-1954), aujourd’hui l’objet d’un véritable engouement, sont restées quasiment inconnues jusqu’au début des années 80. Sa vie, son œuvre (littéraire et artistique) font de Claude Cahun un être d’exception, en marge par rapport aux ordres dominants (sexuels, sociaux…), à une époque d’exploration avant-gardiste intense et de bouleversement des mœurs – notamment en ce qui concerne l’émancipation des femmes. Parmi toutes les œuvres de Claude Cahun, qui a commencé à pratiquer la photographie à l’âge de quinze ans, ce sont sans doute ses autoportraits qui ont suscité le plus d’intérêt. L’artiste se sert de sa propre image pour démonter un à un les clichés associés à l’identité. Claude Cahun s’est réinventée à travers la photographie (comme à travers l’écriture), en posant pour l’objectif avec un sens aigu de la performance, habillée en femme, en homme, cheveux longs ou crâne rasé (chose des plus incongrues pour une femme de l’époque. L’exposition (140 œuvres environ et divers documents) et l’ouvrage qui l’accompagne proposent plusieurs axes de lecture qui vont de ses autoportraits évoquant une identité subversive jusqu’à ses métaphores érotiques ou ses incursions dans le champ politique.
