About The Book
The extremely informative catalog provides readers with a wide-ranging picture of women photographers at the time of the Weimar Republic and their views of their environment, themselves and contemporary culture and politics, with special attention paid to the phenomenon of the “New Woman” in some of the contributions. The motto “Photography means participation” emphasizes the increased mobility, participation and presence of female photographers in public life. In addition to the areas of portrait and fashion photography, reportage and factual photography become fields of activity. Irene Müller in Frauen Kunst Wissenschaft 21 (PDF)
