Since her early works Elfriede Jelinek has been heavily influenced by the political and cultural movements around 1968. Especially her views on Feminism, Criticism and Media Analysis reflect marxian and early poststructuralist approaches of that time. My article focusses on Jelineks early essays and on her first novel bukolit.hörroman, which had been finished in 1968, but wasn`t released until 1979. By drafting a short reconstruction of the younger austrian history and of the developments around 1968 my article tries to put Jelineks early works in a wider context. Her highly experimental novel bukolitand also her essayistic reflections can be read as indices of the artistic and critical possibilites after the cesura of 1968. In their parodistic style they also throw a critical glance on austria. They point out that 1968 there did not occure like it occured in other european countries and that it had a more anarchistic and even patriarchal undertone.

Die politische Emanzipationskraft der in den 1960er und 1970er Jahren entwickelten feministischen Kunst ist heute teilweise der Genderdebatte zum Opfer gefallen. Weiterhin notwendige feministische Arbeit wird vernachlässigt, feministische Kunst musealisiert und entpolitisiert. Außerdem führt die populäre Beschäftigung mit Genderfragen mit unter zur Vernachlässigung künstlerischer Fragen. Dabei bietet das „Neogeschlecht“ spannenden Stoff für künstlerische Selbstrepräsentation. Die Grenzen zwischen den Genres werden aufgelöst, auch die Grenzen zwischen realem Abbild und Wunschprojektion, klassischem Selbstporträt und gendersensitiver Selbstinterpretation verfließen. Part of the emancipatory force of 1960s and 1970s feminist art was lost along the way because the gender debate now dominates public discourse. While feminist action is still necessary, feminist art is being historicized and depoliticised. In addition, the popular focus on gender issues sometimes results in a neglect of artistic issues. Nonetheless, “neogen der” offers exciting material for artistic self-representation. The boundaries between genres are melt away as do the distinctions between realistic image and desired icon, classic self-portrait and gender-sensitive selfinterpretation.
