ELIZABETH SIEGFRIED
The images of Elizabeth Siegfried increasingly have
become recognized for their intricacy of detail and
sophistication of content. Known for her work in self
portraiture and photographic narrative, Siegfried has
worked with the historical process of platinum for
twenty-five years and has exhibited her images in
Canada, the US, Italy, Germany, Japan and Mexico. In
recent years, she has expanded her mode of presentation
to include Iris and other archival digital prints.
Siegfried has had her photographs reproduced and
discussed in such publications as SHOTS
magazine, Schwarzweiss, La Fotografia
Actual, Camera Arts, Photo Life Magazine
and The Women’s Daybook. Her first book
entitled LifeLines was published in 2000 and includes a
literary introduction by the National Book Award Winner
Andrea Barrett. Her work is represented in many private
and public collections, including the Kiyosato Museum of
Photographic Arts in Japan; the Canadian Museum of
Contemporary Photography in Ottawa; and the Peter E.
Palmquest Women in Photography International Archive
held at the Beinicke Rare Book and Manuscript Library at
Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut.
