Jo Spence (1934 – 1992) was a key figure from the British photographic left from the mid seventies and crucial in debates on photography and the critique of representation. Her work engaged with a range of photographic genres – from documentary to phototherapy – and responded to the prioritisation from the late 70s onwards of lens-based media in art-critical discourse.
