"Heath" (2005) from Katharina Bosse's series A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Mother, is reproduced from Female Photographers Org: The Body Issue, the first publication from a new, non-hierarchical collective of 20 female photographers engaging topics of gender portrayal, body image and the media. "In the 1980s, voices started to emerge that criticized the depiction of women’s bodies in the male-dominated world of photography," Elisabeth Biondi writes. "How-to guides for photographing the nude body only had female models. Men were the photographers and the authors. Women were in front of the lens and depicted like butterflies in a lepidopterological study and male superiority in the field was never questioned." This vibrant, provocative 144-page issue edited by Biondi with text by Emma Lewis gives voice to the discussion of the representation of the female body and includes work by guest artists Brandy Eve Allen, Brittney Casey Adams, Mary Chen, Tamara Dean, Yushi Li Dita Pepe, Lotte van Raalte, Laurie Simmons and Chanell Stone, as well as work by members of the collective, including Bosse, Bex Day, Haley Morris-Cafiero, Maggie Steber, Meklit Fekadu, Jennifer Greenburg, Jocelyn Lee, Lilly Urbat, Kirsten Becken, Claudia Holzinger, Jessica Barthel, Caro Siegl, Oriana Layendecker, Nora Lowinsky, Hanna Mattes, Veronika Faustmann, Katya Abedian, Paula Winkler, Marzena Skubatz and Qiana Mestrich.
