Renée Jacobs | Raw and Radical Women in the Arts

Photojournalist, and then litigator turned one of the most celebrated photographers of the female nude of our time, Renée Jacobs talks about her career transformation, the visual representation of women in society and being a queer woman in her field of work.

I’m happy to receive Renée Jacobs on today’s episode. She explains her career choices and transitions, details on her “PARIS” and “POLAROIDS” book, insights and anecdotes on the pressure of being a woman, especially queer, photographer of the female nude.

We also highlight the importance of authenticity in the depiction of female sensuality, and of accurately shaping our own image (as women). In her words, “women can’t be heard if we can’t be seen.”

Conversation Highlights:

Her transition from photojournalism to law to photography of the female nude
The visual representation of women in our society, particularly of the erotic woman
Her books “PARIS” and “POLAROIDS”, and the “PHOTOS DE FEMME” organization
