Laurie Simmons: In and Around the House

Edited by Carolina NitschEssays by Carol Squiers and Laurie Simmons Laurie Simmons has been dealing with issues from In and Around the House since the mid-1970s.  Her seminal early work was some of the first to use set-up photography to create images with intensely psychological subtexts and forcefully feminist content. The 1950s-style constructed interiors used dolls, dollhouse furnishings, miniature props, postcards, interior decoration books, pamphlets and magazines to create images that questioned female stereotypes and American clichés with humor and charm.  Carolina Nitsch Editions, 2003 Hardcover, 104 pages 10 x 12 inches
