Throughout the history of photography the genre of landscape has been dominated by male perspectives. In this work, ten women photographers interpret the notion of landscape from a variety of perspectives.
Throughout the history of photography the genre of landscape has
been dominated by male perspectives. "Shifting Horizons" makes us
rethink our perceptions of the inner and outer landscapes we
experience. Ten women photographers reinterpret the notion of
"landscape." Using techniques ranging from historical non-silver
processes to new digital imaging technologies, they are concerned
with borders: between land and sea, day and night, inside and
outside, public and private, absence and presence, space and
enclosure, image and words; past, present and future.
Attempting to address the photography of children in the late 1990s is a difficult and potentially dangerous exercise. _I Spy_ takes up the challenge by means of a unique combination of new colour and black and white photographs and newly commissioned writing. A book to savour, it addresses two related issues in the contemporary photography of children: how children photograph themselves and how they are portrayed by modern women photographers. It includes, for example, children's photographs of their homes, families and environment, a body of work on twins, a mother's photographs of her daughter and powerful essays expressing poetic, personal and critical approaches. Together, images and words describe intimate, surprising facets of the visual world of childhood.The contributors are: Melissa Benn, Linda Bullock, Wendy Ewald, Catherine Fahily, Jane Fletcher, Suzanne Greenslade, Patricia Holland, Holly Street Public Art Trust, Caroline Molloy, Kate Newton, Cath Pearson
