Making Pictures: Women Photographers from the DAM Collection

Vista general

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 stories of 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.

From one of the earliest photographs in our collection to examples from throughout the 20th century to photographers working today, this talk will spotlight women who have innovated, influenced, and contributed to the history of the medium and the field today.

This course will take place at the museum in Sharp Auditorium, and online via livestream. To register for the in-person course in Sharp Auditorium, please purchase an onsite ticket. To register for the livestream of the course, please purchase an online ticket
