Jo Ann Callis was studying design at UCLA when, in 1973, a photography class she took with Robert Heinecken not only opened the door to a new medium but opened it wide, giving her a sense of unlimited permission. Callis’s early work, in both black-and-white and color, often featured a figure, usually a lone female, partially concealed, costumed, or bound, in a spare, domestic setting. These images are provocative and charged, dense with sexual and psychological tension.
