520 8  Artificial bodies constructed in human likeness, from 
       uncanny automatons to mechanical dolls, have long played a
       complex and subtle role in human identity and culture. 
       This book takes a range of these bodies, from antiquity to
       the present day, to explore how we seek out echoes, 
       caricatures and replications of ourselves in order to make
       sense of the complex world in which we live. Packed with 
       case studies, from the commedia del'arte to Hans Bellmer, 
       and the work of Andre Courreges to the 1980s supermodel, 
       this volume explores the divide between the "real" and the
       constructed. Arguing that the body "other" plays a crucial
       role in the formation of the self physically and 
       psychologically, leading scholar Adam Geczy contends that 
       the "natural" body has been replaced by a series of 
       imaginary archetypes in our post-modern world, central to 
       which is the figure of the doll. The Artificial Body in 
       Fashion and Art provides a much-needed synthesis of 
       constructed bodies across time and place, drawing on 
       fashion theory, theatre studies and material culture, to 
       explore what the body means in the realms of identity, 
       gender, performance and art.
