San Francisco: The 1990s","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Candid Portrait of the 1990s New Wave of Queer Culture    'I carried my camera everywhere at the time. Photography was a casual, spontaneous, integrated part of my communication with somebody - it was built into the fabric of my life.' - Chloe Sherman, The Guardian    'For the queer community pictured in Chloe Sherman's new photo book, Renegades, self-presentation is a kind of sacred tongue.' - The New Yorker    In the 1990s, queer youth, outcasts and artists, flocked to San Francisco to find one another and to experiment with art, self-expression, style, and gender. Rent was affordable, paving the way for queer bars, clubs, tattoo shops, galleries, cafes, bookstores, and women-owned businesses to emerge. A new wave of feminism embraced gender bending, and butch\/femme culture flourished. The Mission District was the center of this queer cultural renaissance, and the feeling of community was palpable. Chloe Sherman was both a member of this community and an ardent visual chronicler. Her documentary photographic work on 35mm film stems from a commitment to capturing the vibrancy, tenderness, individuality, resilience, and joy within this subculture that was derided by mainstream society.  Distilling the spirit of the time, her debut monograph is a candid portrait of a vibrant era that connects current and future generations to the pulse of San Francisco at a pivotal chapter in queer history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nadine Barth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51666075058392,"sku":"9783775755177","price":1920.0,"currency_code":"EGP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/5572\/0408\/files\/718rDlvnFlL._SL1500.jpg?v=1778578656","url":"https:\/\/www.abcacademic.com\/products\/chloe-sherman-renegades-san-francisco-the-1990s","provider":"Academic Bookshop Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
