The International Photography Hall of Fame (IPHF) honored four remarkable female photographers in its 2023 awards.
Last week, photographers Nan Goldin, Bea Nettles, and Vivan Maier were inducted into the IPHF. Meanwhile, Matika Wilbur became the recipient of the IPHF’s Visionary Award.
For the last 55 years, the IPHF has granted honors annually to those “who demonstrate the artistry, passion, and evolution of the past and present art and science of photography.” Last year, a documentary film about Goldin and her fight to hold a pharmaceutical firm accountable for the U.S. opioid crisis haswas an American street photographer whose massive, unseen body of work came to light when it was purchased from an auction in Chicago in 2007. Consistently taking photographs over five decades, she would ultimately leave behind over 100,000 negatives.
Bea Nettles explores the narrative potential of photography through constructed images often made with alternative photographic processes. Combining craft and photography, Nettles’s work makes use of wide-ranging tools and materials, including fabric and stitching, instamatic cameras, the book format, manually applied color, and hand‐coated photographic emulsions. Her imagery evokes metaphors that reference key stages in the lives of women, often with autobiographic undertones.
