Abstract
A report on the 1987 SPE national conference, entitled ""Vantage
Points'', which included panels on nonwhite & gay/lesbian
photography, alternative educational paradigms, theories of the
'Other', plus the Women Caucus program featuring panels like
""Older Women'', ""Views from Different Places'', ""The Practice
of Freedom: Cultural Opposition by Latin American Imagemakers'',
and ""Feminism and Postmodernism''. The author focuses her
attention on the latter panel and gives an account of the
speeches delivered by Mary Kelly, Abigail Solomon-Godeau, Craig
Owen and Constance Penley. The panel on ""The Names of the
Other: Photography and the Power of Representation'' featured
speeches by ethnographic filmmaker Trinh T. Minh-Ha, James
Clifford, and Allan Sekula. Ulrich Keller's lecture was
noteworthy for its re-interpretation of the beginings of
photojournalism, dating it back to the late 19th century and the
introduction of halftones. A short account of Douglas Crimp's
presentation: ""Safe Sex, or How to Have Promiscuity in an
Epidemic'' concludes her report.
