Girl on Girl by Charlotte Jansen
Girl on Girl looks at how young women are using photography and the internet to explore issues of self-image and female identity, and the impact this is having on contemporary art.
"A startling and stunning book that offers a rich, varied alternative to the idea of the selfie as the contemporary feminist art form"-ELLE "As Girl on Girl makes clear, the female gaze offers a powerful lens through which to view, and better understand, the world."-Artsy "Jansen has curated a compelling group of photographers, asked difficult questions, and produced a beautifully illustrated book . . . [Girl on Girl] manages to be of interest to photographers and historians of photography while staying accessible to readers who are interested in learning about contemporary photography. It's definitely worth a read."-Jezebel "Striking in its breadth."-The Huffington Post "What Jansen's book smartly makes clear is that there is no singular female gaze."-ArtSlant "Women like those in Jansen's book are challenging female representation in visual culture, and perhaps with their ideas in mind, we can begin to challenge the current standards of female visual representation ourselves"-Creator's Project at VICE
