Iturbide is modern Mexicos subtlest, most profound chroniclerGraciela Iturbide, best known for her iconic photographs of Mexican indigenous women, has engaged with her homeland as a subject for the past 50 years in images of great variety and depth. The intensely personal, lyrical photographs collected and interpreted in this book show that, for Iturbide, photography is a way of lifeas well as a way of seeing and understanding Mexico, with all its beauties, rituals, challenges and contradictions.The Mexico portrayed here is a country in constant transition, defined by tensions and exchanges between new and old, urban and rural, traditional and modern. Iturbides deep connection with her subjectsamong them political protests, celebrations and rituals, desert landscapes, cities, places of burial and Mexicos artistic heritageproduces indelible images that encompass dreams, symbols, reality and daily life.Published to accompany the first major museum exhibition of Iturbides work on the East Coast, this volume presents more than 100 beautifully reproduced blackandwhite photographs, accompanied by illuminating essays inviting readers to share in Graciela Iturbides personal artistic journey through the country she knows so intimately.One of the most influential photographers active in Latin America today, Mexican photographer Graciela Iturbide (born 1942) began studying photography in the 1970s with legendary photographer Manuel lvarez Bravo. Seeking to explore and articulate the ways in which a vocable such as Mexico is meaningful only when understood as an intricate combination of histories and practices, as she puts it, Iturbide has created a nuanced and sensitive documentary record of contemporary Mexico.
