*** 'An epic and fascinating book.' The Bookseller 'Emma Lewis'
sprawling new book shines a light on overlooked feminist histories'
- AnOther Magazine How did the abolitionist movement interact with
women's entry into the field of photography? What does the medium
have to do with menstrual taboos? Is there even such a thing as a
'feminist image'? Whether working in the studio or on the front
line, women have contributed to every aspect of photography's short
history. For some, gender is front and centre; for others, it's
merely incidental. All have been affected by the power structures
beyond their camera lenses. Far too many have been, and continue to
be, overlooked. Mapping photographic developments against shifting
gender rights and roles, Photography - A Feminist History shines a
light on how photography has borne witness to women's movements and
made the causes for which they fight visible, and how, in turn,
different approaches to feminism have given us ways of
understanding photographs. Authoritative and international in
scope, Photography - A Feminist History features over 140
photographers, with ten thematic essays, and extended profiles on
75 key practitioners, many informed by conversations with the
author.
