Tantalizing Glimpses of Stolen Glances: Lesbians Take Photographs
Jean Fraser is a freelance photographer whose work appears regularly in the gay and lesbian press. She has exhibited widely, including in group shows opposing Clause 28. She is a member of Feminists Against Censorship, and Outrage, a lesbian and gay direct-action group.
Tessa Boffin has been staging scenes, with the consent of others, for as long as she cares to remember. Her missionary quest to convert has taken her into the realms of part-time teaching and collaborative projects. Her last exhibition and book, Exstatic Antibodies: Resisting the AIDS Mythology was published by Rivers Oram Press in 1990, and was co-organized with Sunil Gupta. The exhibition has toured Britain (where it has been censored), and will tour North America.
Stolen Glances: Lesbians Take Photographs edited by Jean Fraser and Tessa Boffin is published this year by Pandora.
