While Birnbaum’s subtle power of observation is attuned to the phenomenon of childhood, it also examines the initial awakening of an as-yet-undefined femininity: an interplay of innocence and allure that is revealed on the path from childhood to adolescence. The camera itself becomes an element in the lives of these girls, a kind of accomplice to the act of self-discovery, of forging their own identity as women.\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003e\u003cFONT size=2\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003cFONT size=2\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans\"\u003e\u003cFONT size=2\u003eExhibition schedule: Galerie Fotohof, Salzburg, June 27–August 2, 2008\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoBodyText style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP style=\"LINE-HEIGHT: 150%\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44873343631624,"sku":"9783775722858","price":29.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775722858_f857c490-5f25-4ba7-8ed2-0146799d4f61.jpg?v=1744111114","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/16071-lillian-birnbaum","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
