WOMEN: A Time Capsule of the American Feminist Landscape
This portfolio identifies the key women who were the first to create their own opportunities in fields traditionally dominated by men. Through their success in the arts and sciences, politics and law and mathematics and athletics, they paved the way for future generations of women in America and around the world.
Gilbert's iconic portraits of the women who transformed the American landscape during the second wave of feminism are of these courageous women who championed the right to equality in the workplace. The portraits were originally photographed in the late 1970's for her book Particular Passions: Talks with Women Who Shaped Our Times.
WOMEN: A Time Capsule of the American Feminist Landscape is a portfolio of twelve black and white 16 x 20 silver gelatin prints, signed by the artist in a presentation box. The portfolio is offered in a limited edition of 12.

THE SILK ROAD
“Lynn Gilbert has documented an area of society that no one has photographed before. Her intimate “portraits” of interiors along the Silk Road are powerful, mysterious and elegant. Whether these portrayals are of the poorest homes or ones of luxury, the rich thread that holds them together is natural light that illuminates, frames, and links all her images. There is a freshness in her vision.” — Spencer Throckmorton, Throckmorton Fine Art
PUBLICATIONS
“Stunning images. Cultural insight. Lynn’s work goes well beyond landscape and architecture. Like Walker Evans before her, Lynn dives beneath the surface, telling the story of a people through images of how they live and work in traditional interiors. More than travel photography, this is cultural anthropology as art.”
