Summary
  1. ""Female boxers are courageous; by stepping into the ring they challenge the social, cultural, and political barriers established to maintain male dominance in society," states Maria Teresa Marquez in her introduction to Women Boxers: The New Warriors by Delilah Montoya."
  2. "Delilah Montoya has engaged the power and beauty of photography for over twenty-five years. C. Ondine Chavoya in his essay on Montoya claims "Montoya's visual art explores cultural history, memory, and identity through an approach that is both documentary and narrative. She works in a variety of two-dimensional photographic and printing processes as well as creating multimedia installations. Equally experimental and reverential, Montoya's images are densely textured and provocatively layered with aesthetic, spiritual, and political meanings.""--Jacket.
