Vanessa Beecroft is an Italian contemporary artist. I couldn’t find much about her early life, but her current works and exhibitions are very well known. Beecroft’s work is a form of fusion, she fuses conceptual issues and artistic concerns to create her works of art. Beecroft is very versatile and skilled in many forms of art, including drawing, painting, videos and photographs. Much of her work involves the use of female models, and her performances are encounters between the models and the audience. Each performance is made for a specific location and often referers to the political, historical, or social associations of the place where it is held.
Beecroft’s performances have been seen as “art, fashion, brilliant, terrible, evocative, provocative, disturbing, sexist, and empowering”, reactions to her work vary from each audience member. Beecroft has produced works and performances for very notable and important art institutions and museums. She has had her own exhibitions, and even produced works for the famous brand Louis Vuitton.
