Bruce Nauman’s Anthro/Socio
(Rinde Facing Camera) 1991, he placed six monitors on three walls all with
a showing shaved revolving head screaming “Feed Me/Eat Me/Anthropology. Help
Me/Hurt Me/Sociology…Feed Me, Help Me, Eat Me, Hurt Me.’
The role of the artist’s body in
this piece is having the spinning heads overwhelm the senses, thus becoming
very powerful. The piece deals with the social body, and removing the audience
from the outside world and desires. Robert C. Morgan said: “Let yourself be fascinated by the
spectacularization of power, or leave. RUN
FROM FEAR.”
