Session 1
Early Women Photographers
Presented by Kara Felt, Ph.D., this first session will explore the many roles that women played in nineteenth-century photography. From working in major studios to producing photographs as professionals and amateurs, women made many contributions to the medium’s first half-century, though histories and collections of photography tend to emphasize only a few extraordinary examples.
Session 2
Making Pictures: Women Photographers from the DAM Collection
Presented by Kimberly Roberts, Senior Curatorial Assistant of Photography, the second session will explore the work of several women photographers in the DAM’s permanent collection. We will dive into the stories of a few of these women’s careers in the field of photography, consider ways photographers influence each other and future generations, and discover how contemporary photographers approach some of the oldest subjects in the history of photography—landscape and portraiture—with new perspectives.
Session 3
Women Photographers Here and Now
In the final course session, get to know Denver-area photographers, gaining insight into their creative practices and innovative visions. In this panel discussion, we’ll learn more about their work and ask how they see themselves in this rich continuum of women in the field.
