Francesca Woodman

Photographic Work

 

New York. Wellesley College Museum and Hunter College Art Gallery. 1986. Exhibition catalogue. First posthumous exhibition of Francesca Woodman's work, organized by Ann Gabhart. Softcover. Large octavo. 64 pages. 

Light wear to the covers. Rubbing to the spine. Internally, binding tight. Pages are clean and bright.  A very good copy. 

Photographer Francesca Woodman committed suicide in 1981 at the age of only 22. Yet, in her brief career she produced a substantial and powerful body of work which has since been widely shown and celebrated. Known for her use of self portraiture, Woodman’s psychological explorations of the body, gender, and the gaze are brooding and multi-layered.

Uncommon.
