MULHERES QUE OLHAM
O CONTROLE DO ATO DE VER E SER VISTO
Keywords:
Photography, Portrait, GenderAbstract
In this article, I analyze the act of female photographers portraying men. I start with the photography related to passion for the people being photographed, and I question the twofold logic artist-man / woman-model by bringing the cases of Tina Modotti, Lee Miller and Gerda Taro – women from the 20th century who were partners of photographers and produced portraits of them. As a contemporary example, I bring forth the work of Sally Mann, a photographer who talks about the importance of gender in the matter of taking portraits.
