Study for George Bataille’s Histoire de l’oeil by Hans Bellmer, 1946
“Only once woman has reached the peak of her experimental calling, is amenable to permutations and algebraic promises, and is willing to submit to transubstantial whims, only once she is ductile, shrinkable and equipped with an epidermis and joints that are equal to the obvious inconveniences involved in post-hoc assembly or disassembly, only then we will finally be able to clarify the anatomy of desire.”
— Hans Bellmer, L’Anatomie de l’Image (Anatomy of the Image)
