Multigenre perspectives on shame and male self-esteem post-MeToo
Since the ascent of the MeToo movement, male sexual abuse and abuse of power has come under necessary scrutiny, thereby impacting perceptions of male sexuality and the self-esteem of many men. While plenty of male abusers seem to experience no shame, some do, as do men who have not transgressed, but who may now be negotiating shame in relation to their gender and sexuality.
Hybrid in genre, combining scholarly essays with short stories, personal testimonies and provocative and intimate artist's contributions, Shame! and Masculinity looks at the representation of male sexuality, fatherhood, violence, rape, fascism and virility, men and war. It shows works of art that deal with the intricacies and contradictions of these socio-cultural constructs and realities, and stimulates reflection on shame in collusion with masculinity, from male as well as female perspectives, with visual contributions by Jeanette Christensen, Marlene Dumas, Arnoud Holleman, Hans Hovy, Natasja Kensmil, Nalini Malani, Lotte Schröder, Artur Zmijjewski and Ina van Zyl.

From the Back Cover
Shame! and Maculinity onderzoekt deze beide standpunten. Het bekijkt de representatie van verschillende aspecten rondom mannelijkheid, zoals seksualiteit, naaktheid, vaderschap, mannelijk geweld, verkrachting, fascisme en mannen en oorlog. Het boek toont verschillende kunstwerken die de finesses en tegenstrijdigheden inherent aan deze sociaal-culturele constructies en realiteiten adresseren.
Shame! and Masculinity is hybride in genre; korte verhalen worden gecombineerd met wetenschappelijke essays, persoonlijke getuigenissen en provocerende en intieme kunstenaarsbijdragen. Het boek reflecteert op de vele betekenissen van mannelijkheid, vanuit uiteenlopende perspectieven. Deze ‘mannelijkheids’-kwesties, die een pregnante rol spelen in de hedendaagse samenleving, maar ook in onze persoonlijke ervaring, in de geschiedenis en in ons eigen lichaam, worden zo gedifferentieerd onderzocht om zo ruim baan te bieden aan andere, en nieuwe vormen van verbeelding.
