| Synopsis | Hair Allegories is a journey through the aesthetic universe that unfolds human hair as a material for art in the work of Mexican artist Gabriel de la Mora. Through his vibrant prose, Rodríguez Blanco guides the reader from Walter Benjamin's concept of allegory to Jacques Lacan's category of the real, from Julia Kristeva's abjection to Mario Perniola's sex appeal of the inorganic. Hair is revealed as a sublimated artistic material, as a receptacle for repressed desires, and also as a catapult to sinister places of memory. |
