📸 ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Women Photographers 1900–1975: A Legacy of Light celebrates the wide-ranging photographic practices of more than seventy women artists working between 1900 and 1975. Featuring prints, postcards, photobooks and magazines, the exhibition explores the role of photographers as image-makers, and the ways in which women artists create an image of themselves, of others, of the times – from images of the women’s suffrage movement at the turn of the twentieth century, through to the women’s liberation movement and beyond.
