Book excerpt: OH MY GOD, LOOK AT HeR BUTT! Post-Butt ponders the virality of images in our mediated society. More rounded, it is a case study around the image of female butts, booties, and behinds and their influence in media, society, and art. The butt has become the protagonist of mass-mediated cullture. One can say that it is the democratic sex organ par excellence. The phenomenon of bootyfication exists in many contexts, as varied as the exploitation of the body in colonialism to 90s hip-hop culture. Post-Butt goes through different periods in time to analyze the political meaning behind the obsession with the image of the female buttocks and to discuss the role of the booty in varied cultural expressions such as film, Internet art, music videos, dance, and plastic surgery. Deep inside, Post-butt aims to reflect on how our society is conditioned by viral images that do not only exist in the digital context, but also have deep consequences on our physical world. featuring images of eminem, nicki Minaj, Guy Debord, Beyonce, Kara Walker, Josefine Baker, and Kim Kardashian, among many more bootyful others!
