Dripping latex, collapsed rubbertubes, and visceral forms — these were the raw materialsof a radical 1960s art movement,where objects transformed into unsettling reflections of thebody’s sensuality and decay. In Body High, Ryann Donnellydives into this provocative world, focusing on the groundbreaking work ofsculptor Eva Hesse and other women artists who redefined the boundaries ofbodilyexpression. Blending art criticismwith raw personal memoir, Donnelly weaves Hesse’s revolutionary creations withher own journey as a musician and artist grappling with her partner's addiction,fragility, and the complexities of love. Part autotheory, part modernfeminist history, Body High is an intimate exploration of how wemedicate ourselves, express our pain, and confront the unanswerable question: why can't we save the people we love?
