Abstract

Theatrical design is an under-researched area of Surrealist visual culture. This article examines two examples of Surrealist set and costume design, created by Salvador Dalí and Leonor Fini, respectively, through the concept of the monstrous body. Here, ‘monstrous’ refers to the ambiguous body that defies conventional categories. By using the monstrous body to interpret their designs, this article will yield a deeper insight into these artists engagement with the Surrealist challenge to rational conventions of individualism. It will also evidence their own interests in fluid, metamorphic bodies that blur boundaries of the normative human and the ‘Other’.

怪异的身体:萨尔瓦多Dalí和莱昂诺菲尼的戏剧设计
戏剧设计是超现实主义视觉文化中研究较少的一个领域。本文考察了两个超现实主义的场景和服装设计的例子,分别由Salvador Dalí和Leonor Fini通过怪物身体的概念创造。在这里,“怪物”指的是违背传统分类的模糊身体。这篇文章将通过使用怪物的身体来解释他们的设计,从而更深入地了解这些艺术家对个人主义理性惯例的超现实主义挑战。它也将证明他们自己对流体的兴趣,变质的身体模糊了规范的人类和“他者”的界限。
