Two acclaimed South African artists offer a cross-generational
dialogue on history, memory, and the power of self-narration Three
decades after the dismantling of apartheid began, South Africa’s
so-called “born free” generation has reached adulthood and its
artists have used their work to navigate their difficult
inheritance. At the same time, the historical distance between
their experience and that of an older generation grows. This book
brings together two of South Africa’s most acclaimed contemporary
artists to reflect upon this moment. In their respective practices,
Sue Williamson (b. 1941) and Lebohang Kganye (b. 1990) incorporate
oral histories into film, photographs, installations, and textiles
to consider how, just as formal statements determine collective
histories, so the stories our elders tell us shape family
narratives and personal identities. Exploring the complexities
involved in the passing down of memories, their works implicitly
and explicitly address racial violence, social injustice, and
intergenerational trauma. This richly illustrated catalogue
features essays that consider themes of voice, testimony, ancestry,
and care, and a dialogue between Kganye and Williamson that
explores how art can mobilize the healing powers of conversation.

*** '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.
