Professor Sarah Franklin (LSE, from 2012 Dept of Sociology, Cambridge. )
This paper considers the artwork of photographer Gina Glover, artist in residence at Guy's hospital assisted conception unit during 2008-9, and creator of the permanent installation 'The Art of A.R.T.'. Partially in conversation with the artist, I will discuss the relation of this work to Evelyn Fox Keller's model of 'the biological gaze' and to the work of other artists who have depicted assisted reproductive technologies, including both Suzanne Anker and Helen Chadwick.
For examples of Gina Glover's work, see:
