Lot Essay

‘The Chapmans’ work is infectious, morbid, nomadic, zygotic, (oxy)moronic, threatening social and capital power with the enslavement that is inherent in reaction. … With or without genitals, these are not people or children or anything. They are what they are. They cannot be interpreted or incorporated, they are reproductive, not representational’ (K. Biesenbach and E. Dexter, ‘Foreword’, in Chapmanworld, exh. cat., Kunst-Werke Berlin, 1997, n.p.).
