Synopsis
Feminist critic Laura Mulvey coined the term “male gaze” in 1975 to describe the ways in which women were objectified on camera when a man was behind the lens. In this episode, we tackle the “female gaze”—an opposing approach that offers a more authentic and nuanced understanding of femininity. We discuss the artists and photographers leading this movement, and the ways in which the proliferation of images through social media has allowed a new generation of women to become influential without the backing of the art world establishment.
