Artist Carmen Winant draws from over a dozen personal, organisational, and institutional archives from across the Midwest, in Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, Illinois, Kentucky, North Dakota, and Ohio. The photographs themselves are surprisingly regular: women answer the phone, sterilize medical equipment, throw staff birthday parties, offer workshops, and schedule appointments. In centring the tender, quotidian, and routine acts that inform this healthcare work, Winant works to counter the ways anti-choice activists have weaponised photography by proposing a visuality that attends to abortion care. \u003cem\u003eThe Last Safe Abortion\u003c\/em\u003e presents a selection of this vast collection of photographs, accompanied by a text by Winant.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis publication coincides with the complementary new edition of \u003cem\u003eMy Birth\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MACK Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50555647787065,"sku":"210000002916","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0782\/0872\/9145\/files\/screenshot-2024-05-24-at-12224-pm.png?v=1790279638","url":"https:\/\/shop.icp.org\/products\/carmen-winant-the-last-safe-abortion","provider":"International Center of Photography","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
