Key questions include how women’s voices are heard in the history and criticism of photography, the influence of the feminist movement on women photographers’ careers, and the role of museums in shaping the legacies of women photographers. The day also foregrounds strategies for emerging photographers to find themselves in a supportive network of ideas and practice.
