| Video Discription | What makes an image funny? In this film, artist Mariah Robertson works with Bill — a male nude model she met online — taking pictures of him in her Greenpoint studio, and later, rehearsing a Martha Graham-inspired dance routine in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Robertson's point of view is revealed through a series of jokes that highlight not only the artist's wry sense of humor, but also suggest a critical engagement with gender dynamics, sexual politics, and double-standards within art history. Reacting to the pervasiveness of "purposeful nudes" — from paintings of odalisques to contemporary pornography — Robertson's images of naked men occupy "a confusing middle zone" that mingle self-reflexivity with visual whimsy. Mariah Robertson (b. 1975, Indianapolis, IN, USA) grew up in Sacramento, California, and lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.
