These 70 images produced over three years introduced black and white shots that you\u2019d expect, or rather that one would demand from women in cinema. With the absence of a title and color anchoring these images in a kind of timelessness, it\u2019s here that Cindy Sherman\u2019s method can be understood. The photographer sought to depersonalize and put an accent on shots that were witnesses to a society rather than to a particular era. In an almost entirely male-dominated world, Sherman\u2019s work is like a mirror that deftly deforms the status and role attributed to women in the public eye.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:lucida sans unicode,lucida grande,sans-serif;\">With the series&nbsp;<i>Untitled Film Stills<\/i>, she highlights different female figures in daily life as presented in one of the most so-called \u201cprogressive\u201d arts: cinema. A sexy starlet, a happily submissive maid, naive or hard-working, Cindy Sherman brings out many a stereotype. A prostitute, a crying woman, a child, an actress, Sherman incarnates them one-by-one in fictitious settings composed by herself. This is where Cindy Sherman\u2019s work gains in eloquence: with wigs, makeup, and her New York loft in the background, this chameleon questions identity by proving that a woman\u2019s femininity derives from that which one desires most in her. Behind these characters, many would see a feminist manifesto.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:lucida sans unicode,lucida grande,sans-serif;\">\u201cWhile I never considered my work to be feminist or a political statement, for sure everything found in it was drawn from my observations as a woman in this culture,\u201d she explained. Both actress and director, Cindy Sherman seeks to disturb, to study the various ways in which images provoke discipline in women.&nbsp;<i>Untitled Film Stills&nbsp;<\/i>intelligently denounces, taking themes from Hollywood movies that put stars like Marilyn Monroe centerstage &#8211; these same women that were acclaimed and fantasized about for their own so-called freedom. The ambiguity is real, and the body language and facial expressions of her characters remain undefined, leaving the imagination to run free.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cindy Sherman was 25 when she released the&nbsp;Untitled Film Stills&nbsp;series &#8211; the year was 1977, and this work didn\u2019t benefit from the reputation the artist has today.
