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
