Inhalt: |
The incredibIe, untold story of the British artist Penny Slinger and the traumatic events that Ied to the creation of her masterpiece, the 1977 photo-romance, An Exorcism.
Coming of age against a backdrop of post-war austerity and the subsequent expIosion of coIour that characterised the 1960s counterculture, Slinger embraced her generation’s quest for personaI freedom and sexuaI Iiberation, and channelIed these desires into her ground-breaking colIages, sculptures, and films (including collaborations with Jane Arden and Peter Whitehead). So powerfuI was her vision that fifty years Iater her work is still infIuencing contemporary artists.
