I revisited the ‘Silent Partners’ exhibition at the Fitzwilliam Museum of Friday to make some further revisions to my post of 13th November 2014. While there I bought a copy of The Erotic Doll: A Modern Fetish by Marquard Smith (Yale 2013). It’s reminder that siblings of the artists’ lay figure might be partners in the modern, interpersonal sense in which that word is often now used. Indeed, a reminder that it might not be a whole figure at all.
