‘ALMOST A SQUARE’: THE PHOTOGRAPHIC BOOKS OF FRANCESCA WOODMAN AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO SURREALISM

by Alison Dunhill

Francesca Woodman's photographic books are a highly significant body of work from this important 20th century artist. In her MPhil thesis at the University of Essex, Alison Dunhill provides a comprehensive and in-depth analysis of Woodman's artist's books, and examines them in the context of surrealism which, she argues, was a major influence on Woodman.
