Book Description
The North American frontier is an enduring symbol of romance, rebellion, escape, and freedom. At the same time, it's a profoundly masculine myth--cowboys, outlaws, Beat poets. Photographer Justine Kurland reclaimed this space in her now-iconic series of images of teenage girls, taken between 1997 and 2002 on the road in the American wilderness. "I staged the girls as a standing army of teenaged runaways in resistance to patriarchal ideals," says Kurland. She portrays the girls as fearless and free, tender and fierce. They hunt and explore, braid each other's hair, and swim in sun-dappled watering holes--paying no mind to the camera (or the viewer). Their world is at once lawless and utopian, a frontier Eden in the wild spaces just outside of suburban infrastructure and ideas. Twenty years on, the series still resonates, published here in its entirety and including newly discovered, unpublished images.

City of Incurable Women
Author: Laura Larson

ISBN: 9780578963983

Pages :
Book Description
City of Incurable Women draws its inspiration from the Iconographie photographique de la Salpêtrière, the medical reference books that accompanied 19th century neurologist Jean-Martin Charcot's case histories of the female patients he diagnosed as hysterics. City of Incurable Women is a poetic investigation of the physiological belief, held by Charcot, that illness is written on the surface of the body, of the capacity of photography to objectively reveal those signs of illness, and of the relationship between image (in the form of Charcot's photographs) and narrative (in the form of his case histories). It is also an attempt to imaginatively chart the lives and experiences of Charcot's patients beyond the purely medical identity he assigned them.
