Description

Each of Sherman’s sixty-nine Untitled Film Stills (1977–80), presents a female heroine from a movie that feels familiar, as if we’ve seen it before. In this #21, we see the determined face of a young girl, setting out for her new career in a bustling metropolis. Sherman herself plays the role, dressing herself precisely to capture the familiarity of a scene we recognize, yet is undeniably novel. It is a fiction, but the truth of the piece peers through – questioning the role of femininity in postwar America – a period that defined Sherman as she grew up to become a definitive artist in contemporary culture.

The Artist

Cindy Sherman

Born in 1954 in Glen Ridge, New Jersey, Cindy Sherman lives and works in New York NY. Her ground-breaking photographs have interrogated themes around representation and identity in contemporary media for over four decades. Coming to prominence in the late 1970s with the Pictures Generation group alongside artists such as Sherrie Levine, Richard Prince and Louise Lawler, Sherman studied art at Buffalo State College in 1972 where she turned her attention to photography. In 1977, shortly after moving to New York, Sherman began her critically acclaimed Untitled Film Stills. A suite of 69 black and white portraits, Untitled Film Stills sees Sherman impersonate a myriad of stereotypical female characters and caricatures inspired by Hollywood pictures, film noir, and B movies.
