29067027Lillian Bassman, at the height of her success was one of the most renowned photographers of the 1940’s -60’s, and at a time when male photographers dominated, her provocative, perhaps feminist work often caused controversy.  Her images were printed in magazines such as Harpers Bazaar and always created a stir due to their content.  Her inspiration was found in adult sexuality, so when the new youth generation of Mods and Hippies took over culture and fashion, she lost her passion.  She burnt all her negatives and left her art behind.

Now, years after she rediscovered her love for photography, the art world seems to be suddenly embracing her images once again as exhibitions and books (Lillian Bassman: Women, Abrams publishing) are being produced across both the U.S and Europe. The exhibitions will not only show original work, but will also display how Bassman has salvaged her lost photographs by experimenting with printing techniques and digital enhancement.
