Hot book alert! ‘Chloe Sherman: Renegades’ is NEW from Hatje Cantz

Featured images are from Chloe Sherman: Renegades, the rising-star photographer’s deep yet exuberant insider’s portrait of the young lesbian subculture of 1990s San Francisco. “The images sequenced in this book are monumental in terms of the times they represent,” Catherine Opie writes. “The queer community in the nineties was vital for the politics of inclusion and exploration, and these images celebrate that era. More importantly, they convey a history that was lived, in intimate images of both public and private moments within that community. This is important work within the history of creating representations of the times we live in. Chloe Sherman understands the notion of bearing witness in the most tender of ways, so that the images in Renegades allow me to relive a precious time in my own life.”
