Feminist Photography in the Creation of Other Images of Women. Buenos Aires in the 1980s

Abstract

The aim of this article is to analyse feminist photographic projects that emerged in Buenos Aires (Argentina) during 1980. Alicia D’Amico and Ilse Fusková are feminist photographers who reflect in their work the demands of the women’s movements in which they participated. At a time characterised by the end of the last Argentine dictatorship and the beginning of the return to the democracy, these artists reflects in their works the questions
that feminists have been asking about women’s images and develop projects where identity is under construction, breaking with gender stereotypes.
