How a generation of women artists is transforming photography with analogue techniques. Beginning in the 1990s, simultaneous with the development of photography in in contemporary art, photography was moving toward total digitalization. 'Lateness and Longing' presents a generation of artists - focused on the work of Zoe Leonard, Tacita Dean, Sharon Lockhart, and Moyra Davey - who have resisted the transition to the digital in their work, and collectively transformed the practice of photography. They used analogue technologies in a dissident way and radicalized signifiers of older models of feminist art. Through a strategy of return, the work of these artists proposes an afterlife and survival of the photographic in contemporary art.
