This study hopes to establish first and foremost that the female nude is a significant and controversial subject in art. It has inspired countless works of fine art throughout all of art history. Furthermore, this essay will establish that because of a historical lack of female artists, men portrayed women as objects to be surveyed for male pleasure. This perspective, better known as the male gaze is still the societally accepted way of seeing women naked. It is through this gaze audiences expect to see female nudes, as idealized, beautiful, and perfect objects to be desired. This study will demonstrate that British artist Jenny Saville was inspired as a woman artist, to tackle the daunting subject of the female nude. It will be proven that Saville rejected the male gaze through her distinctive painting techniques and in doing so she was able to create the presence of an abject, and the reaction of disgust in her audiences. This study will conclude that the abjection in Saville's artwork allowed her viewers to reject the male gaze, question traditional feminine embodiment, and contemplate what "beauty" in art actually is.
