ill. OPappband. / Hardcover. 1. Aufl. Text: dt. - /// Retrospektiv angelegte Publikation über eine der bedeutendsten Dokumentarfotografinnen der 1930er-Jahre. Einblicke in das ungewöhnliche Leben einer unerschrockenen Künstlerin. Der engagierte Realismus der Arbeiterfotografie der 1930er-Jahre begegnete den politischen Entwicklu…ngen der Zeit mit aufklärerischem Impetus. Zur ersten Riege jener sozial motivierten Fotografen gehört neben Paul Strand oder Tina Modotti auch die Wiener Fotografin Edith Tudor-Hart (1908 1973), die der kommunistischen Partei nahestand. Die Jüdin belegte einen Vorkurs am Bauhaus in Dessau und heiratete 1933 einen Engländer, der die Arbeiterbewegung unterstützte und mit dem sie nach Großbritannien flüchtete. Hier gelangte Tudor-Hart posthum zu Berühmtheit, da sie dem sowjetischen Spionagering der Cambridge Five bis zu dessen Zerschlagung in den 1960er-Jahren Mitarbeiter zuführte. Für ihre sensiblen Schwarz-Weiß-Fotografien nutzte Tudor-Hart eine mittelformatige Rolleiflex, mit der sie aus Hüfthöhe Bilder schießen konnte, was ihr erlaubte, mit ihren Modellen bei der Arbeit ungehindert zu kommunizieren. Der Band zeigt ihre unprätentiösen, dokumentarisch geprägten Fotografien zu sozialen Themen, die in Wien, London, Wales und Schottland entstanden. - (zu den Ausstellungen in Wien u. Schottland) (Original-eingeschweisstes Ex. - verlagsfrisch! / new - in original wrapping) Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 1300.

Fine in publishers cloth. 195pp. Illustrated. 1st edition. Through a detailed analysis of exterior and interior images of the female body, this book questions how the visual representation of women has been used to remove women's bodies from varying discourses, especially in relation to the matter of generation and reproduction.… Roberta McGrath examines the relationship between human reproduction and cultural representation from 1750-1910, taking examples from medical archives, covering engraving, photography, radiography and microscopy. The book is interdisciplinary in approach, ranging across feminist theory, history of medicine and philosophy of science, as well as the history of photography. It argues that these historical images - shocking, erroneous, provocative - are absolutely crucial in understanding how the subject of human generation has now become the corporate and government-funded science of reproductive biotechnology. ISBN 0719041678.
