The first ever critical biography of Helen Chadwick, who died tragically young but is now revered as a pioneering feminist artist.
Helen Chadwick (19531996) embraced the sensuous aspects of the natural world, breaking taboos of the "traditional" or "beautiful." Her sculpture, performance, and photography is radical, provocative, and often steeped in humor, and employs unusual, sometimes grotesque materialsbodily fluids, meat, flowers, chocolate, and compost among them. She quickly became a leading figure among Britains postwar avant- garde, becoming one of the first women to be nominated for the Turner Prize. A dedicated teacher, she mentored the majority of the Young British Artists. She was also involved in the artistic community at Beck Road, Hackney, whose residents included Maureen Paley, Richard Deacon, and Genesis P-Orridge.In the KitchenPiss Flowers
