The images of the decade-long performance based photographic project by Linda Cummings.
The images of the decade-long performance based photographic project by Linda Cummings.
Slippages is a landmark publication of photographs by American artist Linda Cummings. The book showcases over 60 high-quality duotone images spanning the decade from 1992 to 2003 and the last vestiges of analog photography. Cummings' compositions toss expectation to the wind, transposing gender dynamics with a sleight of hand. The images convey Cummings' innovative approach to photographic narrative through actions performed and photographed by the artist on-site, in locations as varied as steel mills, coal mines, churches, hospitals and stadiums, many long since disappeared. The photographs express the artist's defiance, exuberance and anxiety amidst the upheavals of a declining industrial age and dawning of the digital era.
Cummings' thought-provoking photographs are complemented with an introduction and four essays that extrapolate ideas from Cummings's photographs and consider how social controversies of the last decade of the 20th century resurface today as the rights of bodily autonomy and gender identity continue to be challenged.
