Synopsis

Francesca Woodman (1958-1981) created a fascinating body of photographic work in a few intense years before her premature death. Her oeuvre has been the subject of numerous in-depth studies and exhibitions in recent years, and her photographs have inspired artists all over the world. Woodman's photographs explore gender, representation, sexuality and the body. Her work includes several self-portraits, using herself and her friends as models. The figures are often placed behind furniture and other interior elements; occasionally, the images are blurred in such a way that their identity is hidden from the viewer. Woodman worked in unusual settings such as derelict buildings, using mirrors and glass to evoke surrealist and occasionally claustrophobic moods. This book accompanies and augments a major exhibition at the Moderna Museet, which has been produced in association with the Woodman Estate. It presents a compilation of photography from the Museum's collection that shows Woodman in context and which will increase our understanding of her work.
