Eye to Eye: Portraits of Lesbians Hardcover – March 23, 2021
Purchase options and add-ons
The women in these portraits were some of the first dykes I ever laid eyes on, and the book feels like a lost family album. -Alison Bechdel
In 1979, JEB self-published her first book, Eye to Eye: Portraits of Lesbians. In a work that was revolutionary for its era, JEB made photographs of lesbians from different ages and backgrounds in their everyday lives―working, playing, raising families, and striving to remake their worlds. The photographs were accompanied by writings from acclaimed authors including Audre Lorde, Adrienne Rich, Joan Nestle, and others. Various women pictured in the book also shared their personal stories. Eye to Eye signaled a radical new way of seeing―moving lesbian lives from the margins to the center, and reversing a history of invisibility. More than just a book, it was an affirmation of the existence of lesbians that helped to propel a political movement. Reprinted for the first time in forty years, Eye to Eye is a faithful reproduction of a work that still resonates today. This edition features additional essays from artist and writer Tee Corinne, former World Cup soccer player Lori Lindsey, and photographer Lola Flash.

Editorial Reviews
Review
Originally self-published by JEB in 1979, it documented intimate moments between lesbians of all ages and backgrounds as they encountered day-to-day life. Each page showcases the beauty and resilience of lesbians as they work, play, raise families, fall in love and shape the world as we know it today. -Diva Magazine, February 2021
Eye To Eye serves as a vital document of LGBTQ+ history. -AnOther, Feb. 2021
Today, in an era characterized by an ubiquity of pictures in our daily lives, the truly radical nature of JEB’s project is hard to grasp. But at the time (Is it really 40 years ago!) she was creating a distinctive body of documentary pictures that was unprecedented, representing women-identified women who were viewed as outliers not only by mainstream culture but, oddly, by most feminists. -Blind Magazine, March 2021
The release of Eye to Eye signalled a new way of seeing, reversing a history of invisibility. To me, this book is iconic. It’s a piece of our collective queer inheritance. It’s a document of all the struggles lesbian elders went through to enable us to have safer and freer lives. Its reissue, by Anthology Editions, symbolises a long-overdue validation of this critically important work. - It's Nice That, March 2021
About the Author
Lori Lindsey is a retired American soccer player. With a career spanning thirteen years, Lindsey was a member of the United States Women’s National Team, representing the team at both the 2011 FIFA Women’s World Cup and the 2012 Olympics. She is currently a commentator for the National Women’s Soccer League, ESPN, Major League Soccer, and United Soccer League. Also a public speaker, she has traveled the world advocating awareness and equality for women and the LGBT community, in both sports and society overall.
Lola Flash is an American photographer whose work focuses on subjects deemed invisible by society―interrogating gender, sexual, and racial norms. Her career began in the 1980s, documenting the social and political issues of the AIDS epidemic, later becoming an integral member of the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power. Flash has produced a number of critically acclaimed series, including Salt, [sur]passing, and Legends, and has been exhibited in The Bronx Museum of the Arts, Pen + Brush, and Victoria and Albert Museum.
Tee Corinne was a photographer, author, editor, and activist. Often noted as one of the most influential lesbian women of her generation, her work is noted for its celebration of female sexuality and lesbian love, and subverting the male gaze. As a sex educator in the '70s, Corinne recognized the need for accessible images of female genitalia and self-published the iconic Cunt Coloring Book (1975), which remains in print to this day. Her artwork has appeared in The Advocate, Feminist Studies, and Philadelphia Gay News. She was the recipient of the Lambda Literary Award, the Women's Caucus for Art President's Award, and the Abdill-Ellis Lambda Lifetime Achievement Award. She passed away in 2006 at the age of sixty-two.

Beau livre à offrir. Un peu de texte en anglais mais c'est avant tout livre de photos.
