In the 1990s, a remarkable shift occurred in the world of photography, as a generation of women artists emerged and revolutionized the field with their unique approach. These artists, known for their work with analogue techniques, challenged the traditional boundaries of photography and expanded its potential. Simultaneously, the industry was heading towards complete digitalization. Lateness and Longing, a groundbreaking book, delves into the captivating stories of these artists, Zoe Leonard, Tacita Dean, Sharon Lockhart, and Moyra Davey. Through their artistic endeavors, they have collectively transformed the practice of photography, employing analogue technologies in unconventional and radical ways.
These artists have steadfastly resisted the temptation to embrace the digital realm in their work. Instead, they have embarked on a journey back in time, revisiting earlier, incomplete, or unrealized moments in the history of photography. Their artistic approach revolves around the analogue foundation of photographic mediums, seeking to reclaim the essence of the medium and infuse it with new life.
What sets these artists apart is their unwavering commitment to the return strategy. They refuse to let go of the past, instead embracing it as a source of inspiration and resistance. Their work serves as a feminist polemic, challenging the status quo and advocating for the survival and afterlife of photography in contemporary art. By embracing formal lateness, photography finds its way forward, defying the pressures of the contemporary and forging new paths of exploration.
Through their innovative approaches, these women artists have not only pushed the boundaries of photography but have also inspired a new generation of artists to embrace the power of analogue techniques. Their work continues to resonate, challenging the conventions of the art world and paving the way for a more diverse and inclusive photographic landscape.
