Reviews / Votes
"Seduced by Modernity is three things in one: a most remarkable, vivid biography of a fascinating person; an analysis of the oeuvre of an important artist-photographer; and an extremely successful study of the interrelations of twentieth century art, gender, and mass culture, interlaced superbly with supporting theoretical passages. This is an extraordinary accomplishment." Lora Carney, University of TorontoMore details
