Reseña:  This is a magnificently illustrated overview of the provocative and moving work of South African photographer Zanele Muholi. Zanele Muholis work is profound and provocative with a whole corpus of images aimed specifically at one clear objective: to make lesbian activism visible in South Africa. This activism faces a series of challenges both within and without South African society but has made manifest its intention to persevere in an adverse social and political context. Muholis oeuvre posits many challenges to South African society as a whole. It is simultaneously an invitation a celebration and an indictment. Her work forces us to question the nature and role of art as much as it demands we question what it means to be a woman in Africa who chooses to love another woman.
