Contributors to this special issue study the visual histories of
sex by examining symbols, images, film, and other visual forms
ranging from medieval religious icons to twenty-first-century
selfies. They argue that engaging BIPOC, antiracist, queer, and
feminist perspectives of the past is vital to understanding the
complex historical relationships between sex and visual culture and
how these relationships continue to shape sexual lives, bodies,
myths, and desires. Essay topics include trans visual archives in
Francoist Spain, a visual archive of British escort and nightclub
hostess Ruth Ellis, pornography and queer pleasure in East Germany,
swimsuit advertisements and "bikini blondes" in the age of the atom
bomb, and teaching the history of sexuality with images. This issue
also contains a roundtable on curating exhibitions devoted to sex
and to queer and trans experience; conversations with historians,
artists, and curators who study visual culture and the history of
sexuality; and an exploration of the photographic archives of Carol
Leigh, a.k.a. Scarlot Harlot. Contributors. Heike Bauer, Roland

In Nature Exposed, Jennifer Tucker studies the intersecting
trajectories of photography and modern science in late Victorian
Britain. She examines the role of photograph as witness in
scientific investigation and explores the interplay between
photography and scientific authority. Almost immediately after the
invention of photography in 1839, photographs were characterized as
offering objective access to reality-unmediated by human agency,
political ties, or philosophy. This mechanical objectivity
supposedly eliminated judgment and interpretation in reporting and
picturing scientific results. But photography is a labor-intensive
process that allows for, and sometimes requires, manipulation. In
the late nineteenth century, the nature of this new technology
sparked a complex debate about scientific practices and the value
of the photographic images in the production and dissemination of
scientific knowledge. Recovering the controversies and commentary
surrounding the early creation of scientific photography and
drawing on a wide range of new sources and critical theories,
Tucker establishes a greater understanding of the rich visual
culture of Victorian science and alternative forms of knowledge,
including psychical research.
