More information about our lecture on Wednesday 16th April 2025. The Female Gaze: Photography from Julia Margaret Cameron to Lee Miller. Lecturer: Suzanne Fagence Cooper https://suzannefagencecooper.blogspot.com

From the earliest days of photography, women have used their cameras to challenge the boundaries of beauty. This lecture begins with the portraits and idylls created by Cameron and Clementina Hawarden. It then considers the images of protest made by Olive Edis and Christina Broom during the 'Votes for Women' campaigns. Finally Suzanne Fagence Cooper explores the career of Lee Miller, from her role as a fashion model, through her Surrealist work, to her uncompromising reportage as a War Correspondent. This lecture shows us the birth of the Modern in art through a new and refreshing lens.
