More about the book

"Men's Room." "Women's Room." We see these signs everywhere, every day, so much that we take them for granted. New York-based photographer Antoni Muntadas, however, has taken photographs of these signs all over the world, and they are published in Ladies & Gentlemen. As we turn page after page of these signs in different languages, signs with different graphics, we are not only amused, but we realize that these symbols have been transformed into gender symbols that refer to a universally accepted gender division. Virtually without text, this volume simply presents the images for what they signifiers of public spaces that exist for a private function.
