Cindy Sherman

I know Cindy Sherman best for her conceptual portraits which explore women's roles and representation in society and the media. For me her work also raises issues of sexuality,  gender, identity and stereotypes. The work I know her for best is her photographic collection The Unititled Film Stills, where she places herself as an unknown actress in shots resembling various film genres.




An interesting interview with Sherman on her work http://www.jca-online.com/sherman.html
