Overview
85% of photojournalists are men. That means almostĀ everything that is reported in the world is seen through menās eyes.Ā Similarly, spaces and communities men donāt have access to are leftĀ undocumentedĀ andĀ forgotten. With the camera limited to the hands of one gender, photographic ātruthā is more subjective than it seems. To answer this serious ethical problem, Women Photograph flips that bias on its head toĀ show what and how women andĀ nonbinaryĀ photojournalists see.
FromĀ documentingĀ major events such as 9/11Ā to capturingĀ unseen and misrepresented communities, this book presents aĀ revisionist contemporary history: pore over 50Ā years of womenās dispatchesĀ inĀ 100 photographs.Ā EachĀ imageĀ is accompanied by 200 words from the photographer about the experience and the subject, offering fresh insights and aĀ much-neededĀ perspective.
Until we haveĀ balanced,Ā representative reporting,Ā the camera cannot offer a mirror to our global society. To get the full picture,Ā we need a diverseĀ range of people behind the lens. This book offers a first step.
Relearn how to see with this evergreen catalogue that elevates the voices of women andĀ nonbinaryĀ visual storytellers.
