All three explored Surrealism early on\n and found their own individual visual language in different ways: the \ncommon denominator is a preoccupation with light, space and the body, as\n well as the existential question of self-perception and one’s place in \nthe world. \u003cbr\u003eWhile American Hoover (Born in Bay Shore, New York)  was one of the pioneers of \ninternational light, video and performance art and produced a surprising\n painterly early oeuvre close to pop art, Hager, who is one of the most \ninteresting female photographers of the 20th century, remains very \nlittle known. Today, Austrian painter Lassnig is one of the most \nimportant female artists of the 20th century, but she only achieved her \ninternational breakthrough late – in the 1980s. \u003cbr\u003eThis publication, three \nbooks in one, enables readers to rediscover the three artists, or even \ndiscover them for the first time. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eArt, body, (self-)perception - a focused, concentrated introduction to the work and biography of three 20\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e century women artist \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNan Hoover\u003c\/strong\u003e (1931–2008), light, video and performance artist (Nan Hoover's works were exhibited in many countries across the world, among them are the Museum of Modern Art, New York (part of the Collection) \/ Osaka Contemporary Art Center in Osaka \/  Musée d'Art Contemporain, Montreal \/  Long Beach Museum of Art, California \/ Art Metropole, Toronto)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAnneliese Hager\u003c\/strong\u003e (1904–1997), photo artist, poet \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMaria Lassnig\u003c\/strong\u003e (1919–2014), painter, graphic artist (Lassnig's works are held in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York.
