"Women photographers and feminist aesthetics" makes the case for a feminist aesthetics
in photography by analysing key works of twenty-two women photographers through ten
thematic chapters and includes the work of cis- and trans-woman photographers. Developing
the argument that through aesthetic force emerges the truly political, Claire Raymond
moves beyond polarization of the aesthetic and the cultural. Instead, photographic
works are read for their subversive political and cultural force, as it emerges through
the aesthetics of the image. This book makes use of in-depth readings of a small number
of photographs, but covers expansively the history of photography, from nineteenth-century
Europe to twenty-first century Africa and Asia. Women Photographers and Feminist Aesthetics
puts forth original interpretations of well-known photographers such as Diane Arbus,
Sally Mann, and Carrie Mae Weems, analysing their work through the rubric of gender,
class, and race. Finally, this book pays close attention to the representation of
indigenous North Americans in photography and contemporary Native American women photographers'
response to this history
