Book Synopsis “She Took Her Own Picture” is the inaugural collection of self-portraiture from members of the Female Self-Portrait Artists’ Support Group. The first book of its kind, featuring images and profiles of 44 artists, the book is bursting with sumptuous artworks by emerging female self-portraitists. Though photographers and painters like Cindy Sherman and Frida Kahlo are world-renowned for their contribution to the female self-portraiture movement, this book demonstrates that more and more women are taking control of their own image and exploring and experimenting with self-representation. These are artists to watch. \| More \| Get URL
