Francesca Woodman (1958-1981) was an artist decisively of her time, yet her photographs retain an undeniable immediacy.
Thirty years after her death, they continue to inspire audiences with their dazzling ambiguities and their remarkably rich explorations of self-portraiture and the body in architectural space.
This retrospective, the first in the United States in more than two decades, explores the complex body of work produced by the young artist until her suicide at age of 22.
