Jane Evelyn Atwood: Rue Des Lombards


Book Description

In late 1975, American photographer Jane Evelyn Atwood (born 1947) was 28 years old and had recently moved to Paris. She quickly developed a fascination with the city's prostitutes, and soon met a women who introduced her to a prostitute she knew. Developing the theme from portraits of this single sitter, Atwood discovered an intriguing subculture around one building on the Rue des Lombards, full of extraordinary characters, costumes and views on gender and sexuality. Atwood's now hallmark immersive style of photojournalism led her deep into this world: "I was always turned on by a person or a group of people and then wanted to know them," she recalled in a recent interview, "and photographing them became a way of knowing them." This volume presents a formative body of work by one of the world's leading photojournalists.

Mississippi History


Book Description

Maude Schuyler Clay started her color portrait series Mississippi History in 1975 when she acquired her first Rolleiflex Twin Lens Reflex camera. At the time, she was living and working in New York and paying frequent visits to her native Mississippi Delta, whose landscape and people continued to inspire her. Over the next 25 years, the project, which began as The Mississippians, evolved in part as an homage to Julia Margaret Cameron, a definitive pioneer of the art of photography. Cameron lived in Victorian England and began her photographic experiments in 1863. Clay's expressive, allegorical portraits of her friends, family and other Mississippians, as well as her artful approach to capturing the essence of light, are the driving forces behind her recollection of moments of family life in Mississippi in the 1980s and 90s.
