Her father owned a movie theater, so movies became the prism through which she viewed the world and they had a profound influence on her photography.\u00a0 She studied art at\u00a0<span class=\"s1\">UCLA<\/span>\u00a0from 1959 to 1962 before moving to\u00a0<span class=\"s1\">San Francisco<\/span>\u00a0and received a bachelor&#8217;s degree in 1963 and a master&#8217;s degree in 1966, both from\u00a0<span class=\"s1\">San Francisco State University<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Judy Dater uses\u00a0<span class=\"s1\">photography<\/span>\u00a0as an instrument for challenging traditional conceptions of the female body. Her early work paralleled the emergence of the\u00a0<span class=\"s1\">feminist movement<\/span>\u00a0and her work became strongly associated with it. At a time when female frontal nudity was considered risqu\u00e9 Dater pushed the boundaries by taking pictures of the naked female body. However, she did so in a way which did not objectify her subject which was in many cases, herself.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Dater began taking photographs in the 1960s and she is still taking photographs today. Mark Johnstone, an Idaho resident whom Dater photographed in the early 80\u2019s remarked that \u201cDuring this time, she never got swayed by or indulged in trends, but moved with her own vision. She\u2019s one of the few successful women in the art world, especially photography, who never depended on ongoing academic support to fuel and expand her artistic exploration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">She has been the recipient of a Guggenheim fellowship, a Rockefeller Foundatiin grant for a residency at Bellagio, a Djerassie Artist in Residence grant and two National Endowment for the Arts Grants.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">For more research; learn more on <a href=\"http:\/\/judydater.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">her website here.<\/a>\u00a0Continue <a href=\"http:\/\/www.artpractical.com\/column\/notes-from-dirosa-judy-dater-on-vaginas-and-earthworks\/\" target=\"_blank\">reading with this article<\/a>, or this<a href=\"http:\/\/static1.squarespace.com\/static\/51dc7e6ee4b02bbec3257efd\/t\/534869bce4b039879a59697e\/1397254588147\/WomensArtJournalComplete.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"> wonderful piece on her work<\/a>, a <a href=\"http:\/\/elhurgador.blogspot.com.es\/2014\/06\/judy-dater-fotografia.html\" target=\"_blank\">spanish blog<\/a> post, and a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nortonsimon.org\/face-to-face-with-judy-dater\/Large\" target=\"_blank\">video presentation with Dater&#8217;s voice over in conversation with a curator<\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1997\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1997\" style=\"width: 700px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1997 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Bill-and-his-Rolls-1977.jpg?resize=696%2C538&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Bill and his Rolls, 1977\" width=\"696\" height=\"538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Bill-and-his-Rolls-1977.jpg?w=700&amp;ssl=1 700w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Bill-and-his-Rolls-1977.jpg?resize=300%2C232&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Bill-and-his-Rolls-1977.jpg?resize=624%2C482&amp;ssl=1 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1997\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bill and his Rolls, 1977<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1998\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1998\" style=\"width: 624px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1998\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Woman-in-a-White-Slip-2014-.jpg?resize=624%2C786&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Woman in a White Slip, 2014\" width=\"624\" height=\"786\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Woman-in-a-White-Slip-2014-.jpg?w=556&amp;ssl=1 556w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Woman-in-a-White-Slip-2014-.jpg?resize=238%2C300&amp;ssl=1 238w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1998\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Woman in a White Slip, 2014<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>http:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interview\/judydater.mp3Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | TuneIn | RSS | Click here to join mailing listPhotographer and Artist Judy Dater has been a major figure contributing to Photography&#8217;s\u00a0breakout moment in the 1960s.
