Krátky popis
An accessible, inspirational and engaging introductory survey of
LGBTIQ+ photography, as told through the collection of the Victoria
and Albert Museum, London. Drawing on one of the oldest and largest
photography collections in the world, this book offers an
unprecedented view of photographic history through a queer lens. It
includes a broad range of global LGBTIQ+ representation from the
mid-19th century to now, presenting images from pioneering LGBTIQ+
photographers and subjects alongside work documenting activism and
hard-won legal battles, over a century of performance and nightlife
and diverse queer communities, collectives and
subcultures.Following an introductory essay by Zorian Clayton,
images are presented in six thematic chapters: Icons, Staged, Body,
Liberty, Making a Scene and Beyond the Frame. Each chapter opens
with a short introductory essay, followed by an extended plate
section. Expanded captions highlight key images, and ‘artist in
focus’ inserts draw on the work of selected photographers to
illuminate particularly rich moments in LGBTIQ+ history.Bold
proclamations of queer identity and community sit alongside
personal explorations of self, documentation of struggle, joy and
everyday life is considered side-by-side with performances and
photographic fictions that continue to challenge the bounds of
gender and sexuality. This vital, accessible volume offers an
exciting, expansive appraisal of photography's role in expressing,
documenting and celebrating queer life. It will be essential for
all with an interest in the history of photography, but especially
those with an interest in LGBTIQ+ history.
