Claude Cahun (Nude at Beach)

Poster from the first UK-based solo museum exhibition of French avant-garde artist Claude Cahun held in Inverleith House. Cahun's self-portraits explode with ideas about gender and identity. Cahun presented herself before the lens in a prodigious number of guises. She rejected traditional models of femininity and insisted on being taken seriously. She appears at the entrance to the show shaven-headed and without eyebrows in a series of visceral black and white self-portraits.
