Summary note
A collection of critical essays on Cindy Sherman, this text discusses Sherman's almost three-decade-long career, from her debut in the black-and-white 'Untitled Film Stills' through her colour photographs using back-projection, prosthetic body parts, andthe ever-ingenuous modes of disguise and self-fashioning.
