“I wanted to make the invisible communion between girls visible, foregrounding their experience as primary and irrefutable. I imagined a world in which acts of solidarity between girls would engender even more girls—they would multiply through the sheer force of togetherness and lay claim to a new territory. Their collective awakening would ignite and spread through suburbs and schoolyards, calling to clusters of girls camped on stoops and the hoods of cars, or aimlessly wandering the neighborhoods where they lived.” —Justine Kurland Celebrating Aperture’s 70th anniversary, the Seventy x Seventy print sale brings together original works by seventy artists, available in editions of seventy for $250 each.
