Abstract

This review article responds to the recent exhibition at Tate Britain by Sarah Lucas. It critically considers her use of the coded stereotypes, clichés and vernacular language drawn from British popular culture. Often focused on the playful mangling of the codes and assumptions of femininity and masculinity, we show how her work can be adequately characterised by its recurring thematic and formal concerns.
