Forgotten shoes. Venice, Italy. 1955. Inge Morath

“Venice is where my passion for photography first gripped me. I’d walk around aimlessly, just looking until I was obsessed by the sheer joy of seeing and discovering a place. I had of course devoured books about Venice, painting and history in preparation. My inner reservoir was filled.” – Inge Morath, Inge Morath: Her Life. Her Photography, Silvana Editoriale, 2019

Listen. Portrait of Sahar Lotfi, an Iranian singer. Tehran, Iran. 2010 Newsha Tavakolian

“Women in Iran are not allowed to sing solo in public. I invited six women singers to my studio where they performed in front of my camera. I portrayed them singing. After that, I created a series of CD covers for their imaginary albums.” – Newsha Tavakolian

Renee Casella, Marjo Selin, and Renate Holland. Ms. Olympia bodybuilding competition. New York City. USA. 1988 Susan Meiselas

“When I was photographing the Miss Olympia competition in 1988 I was thinking about the kinds of representation women were seeking and the ambitions they held—the challenges and possibilities. I was also feeling boxed in as a 'woman photographer' photographing women—am I doing this because I'm a woman or is it because I'm a woman, I feel free to place myself anywhere? I think I believed that I could be whomever I imagined myself to become.” – Susan Meiselas

‘Umfundi’. From the series: Afronauts. 2012. Cristina de Middel

“I wish the past was just a grammatical tense, just like when you learned English as a non-native speaker in the old days. Fall — Fell — Fallen. Do — Did — Done. Like it was just one more of the columns you needed to memorize. I also wish the past was a textbook that we could learn from, and not a holy book that we have to worship. But, the products of wishes only exist in the realm of the future, so I guess I will have to wait. I love feeling nostalgic, but prefer to feel inspired to act on what has yet to happen — and this is a very serious ‘me’ writing today. I will probably regret it tomorrow.” – Cristina de Middel
