views in process takes a look behind the superficiality of clichés and stereotypes in the media’s presentation of the body.

In views in process Doris Stelzer analyses the commercial exploitation of the body and the recent trends of representation of the body in the media. Popular clichés and stereotypes are questioned in regard to the own and the other biological sex and in regard to their social construction. Reflections on the patterns of perception and a delicate handling of deviations from the body norm are postulated. „views in process“ is, after „shifted views – extended“, the third part of a research series on the subject of contemporary representation of the body and current socio-political body images.
