An International Conference to Rewrite the History of Women’s Role in Photography will take place on 20–21 November 2025 at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera in Milan. The event marks the conclusion of the PRIN 2022 PNRR NextGenerationEU project “Fotografiste: Women in Photography from Italian Archives, 1839–1939”, jointly promoted by the IMT School for Advanced Studies Lucca and the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera. The conference aims to restore visibility to the work of women who, during the first century of photography, played a crucial role in its development. Its goal is to rediscover identities and trajectories through the lens of feminist studies, bringing to light forgotten or overlooked figures and reexamining historical narratives traditionally centered on male photographers and enterprises.
