About the Covers
JOSEPH SQUIER, The Anatomy Series, altered electronic images from Polaroid original, 8 x 10 in, 1994. (front cover) Anatomy Frontal, (back cover) Anatomy Dorsal. These images represent my continuing interest in the body as a map, a metaphor and a repository; a storehouse for emotions, a structure upon which we construct our sense of self and a fragile vessel whose future is always tenuous. The Anatomy Series was one of my earliest attempts to bridge the gap between my background as a photographer and my desire to explore the potential of emerging digital tools. These and other images from the series can also be viewed at "the place" (http://gertrude.art.uiuc.edu/ludgate), where they are used as part of larger Web-based artworks.
