Jo Spence (15 June 1934, London – 24 June 1992, London) was a British photographer, a writer, cultural worker, and a photo therapist. She began her career in the field of commercial photography but soon started her own agency which specialised in family portraits, and wedding photos. In the 1970s, she refocused her work towards documentary photography, adopting a politicized approach to her art form, with socialist and feminist themes revisited throughout her career. Self-portraits about her own fight with breast cancer, depicting various stages of her breast cancer to subvert the notion of an idealized female form, inspired projects in 'photo therapy', a means of using the medium to work on psychological health.

rdfs:comment	Jo Spence (Londres, 1934-1992) ha estat una artista crucial en els debats sobre la fotografia i la crítica de la representació dels anys setanta i vuitanta. El seu treball, que s'inspira en Bertolt Brecht i en John Heartfield entre d'altres, explora les formes de construcció de les identitats socials a través de la imatge, i proposa una re-apropiació subjectiva dels usos dominants i populars del mitjà. Autora i model de les seves sèries, Spence fa de la fotografia un instrument de rebel·lió i de teràpia enfront de les patologies generades per les formes de vida normalitzada que reprodueixen les imatges dominants en l'esfera cultural. Hi ha obra seva al MACBA. (ca) Jo Spence (* 15. Juni 1934 in London; † Mai 1992 ebenda) war eine britische Fotografin.

(en) Jo Spence, född 15 juni 1934 i i Essex, död 24 juni 1992 i Hampstead i London, var en brittisk fotograf. Det var då hon arbetade som sekreterare i en fotostudio som intresset för fotografering väcktes, något hon utvecklade och senare blev yrkesverksam i. Det var först på 1970-talet som Spence på allvar påbörjade sitt politiskt aktiva liv och det var kvinnan och kvinnokroppen som då stod i fokus för hennes fotoprojekt. Den feministiska övertygelsen var stark hos Spence, vilket resulterade i en mängd fotoserier med samhällets utsatta kvinnor som objekt. (sv)
