A photographic history of the women who resisted climate change - Financial Times

Barbara Kruger’s seminal work seems to me to embody the essence of this show. It contains this double rejection: of women being synonymous with (passive, silent, irrational) nature and of men as producers of culture. We see a closely cropped image, likely culled from a 1950s fashion magazine, of a glamorous woman lying against a grassy background with her eyes gently covered by leaves. The leaves make me think that she’s dreaming of another world: reimagining or willing into being a place that e…

Beauty, by holy order - Financial Times

The first prayers of the day are said at 5 o’clock in the morning at the Abbazia di Praglia, at the foot of the hills outside Padua, Italy. The monks make their way through the 15th-century cloister to the church, with its barrel-vaulted ceilings and frescoes by Campagnola, where, as sunrise breaks through the windows, they say their matins.

A corset for a ba…

This special project was assembled, over several months, in consultation with hundreds of FT journalists across dozens of bureaux, our readers and industry leaders. The end result is a list f…

The body on camera

We talk about the human body as a machine, an instrument, a vessel. We say that it has its own language and its own genre of horror. It can be a temple or a weapon, an agent of fear and shock or delight and beauty. Through 12 photography projects, this special issue touches all of these iterations of the human form. Basketball players readying themselves to leap for the ball appear like figures from a Renaissance painting. Bodies that find deep water terrifying tentatively learn to swim. Dancers…
