Women Photographers and Feminist Aesthetics makes the case for a
feminist aesthetics in photography by analysing key works of
twenty-two women photographers, including cis- and trans-woman
photographers. Claire Raymond provides close readings of key
photographs spanning the history of photography, from
nineteenth-century Europe to twenty-first century Africa and Asia.
She offers original interpretations of well-known photographers
such as Diane Arbus, Sally Mann, and Carrie Mae Weems, analysing
their work in relation to gender, class, and race. The book also
pays close attention to the way in which indigenous North Americans
have been represented through photography and the ways in which
contemporary Native American women photographers respond to this
history. Developing the argument that through aesthetic force
emerges the truly political, the book moves beyond polarization of
the aesthetic and the cultural. Instead, photographic works are
read for their subversive political and cultural force, as it
emerges through the aesthetics of the image. This book is ideal for
students of Photography, Art History, Art and Visual Culture, and
Gender.
