    The Metropolitan Museum of Art Presents: The New Woman Behind the Camera

    The "New Woman" of the 1920s was a powerful expression of modernity, a global phenomenon that embodied an ideal of female empowerment based on women making revolutionary changes in life and art. Featuring more than 120 photographers from 20+ countries, this groundbreaking exhibition, on view at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art through October 3, explores work of diverse “new” women who embraced photography as a mode of professional and artistic expression from the 1920s through the 1950s.

  • Women and Photography: 1924-1965

    Virtual Presentation

    In pre-war Berlin and Paris, some young women who were part of the avant-garde movement were intrigued by the possibilities of a new new medium: photography. Unlike painting and sculpture, photography was full of new possibilities and still free of an established, male hierarchy. But the creative freedom these modern women were enjoying in Europe would soon be replaced by fascism. Some, including Lee Miller, would relocate to London, whereas others came to New York, where after the war, they would work for magazines before facing the realities of McCarthyism. Even though the groundbreaking work of these women still resonates today, only a few, like Berenice Abbott, would get some of the recognition they deserved in their lifetimes, others still remain in relative obscurity.
