Summary:
"This study explores a tripartite relationship between the art of Edvard Munch, the mid-nineteenth-century novel Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert, and the video work Madame B based on the novel, by Michelle Williams Gamaker and myself. These three partners explain, illuminate, and hence "frame" one another. It is a study of Munch's paintings, framed by Flaubert's novel, in turn framed by our videos. But the itinerary can be reversed, and we can see Munch's work framing Flaubert's novel as well as our videos. In short, this is a framing of images by means of grouping them. As the author of this book, I am also the "curator" of these images, because I group them according to my view, for which the artists are not responsible."--Page 9.
