"The articulated human figure made of wax or wood has been a common tool in artistic
practice since the 16th century. Its mobile limbs enable the artist to study anatomical
proportion, fix a pose at will, and perfect the depiction of drapery and clothing.
Over the course of the 19th century, the mannequin gradually emerged from the studio
to become the artist's subject, at first humorously, then in more complicated ways,
playing on the unnerving psychological presence of a figure that was realistic, yet
unreal-lifelike, yet lifeless. Silent Partners locates the artist's mannequin within
the context of an expanding universe of effigies, avatars, dolls, and shop window
dummies. Generously illustrated, this book features works by such artists as Poussin,
Gainsborough, Degas, Courbet, Cézanne, Kokoschka, Dalí, Man Ray, and others; the
astute, perceptive text examines their range of responses to the uncanny and highly
suggestive potential of the mannequin"
