Graciela Iturbide

By Graciela Iturbide

An expanded edition of the most comprehensive survey to date on the work of iconic Mexican photographer Graciela Iturbide

Published with MAPFRE.

Mexico City-born Graciela Iturbide (born 1942) is one of Latin America's most acclaimed photographers and the only Latin American woman to have received the prestigious Hasselblad Award. With a focus on identity, sexuality, festivals, rituals, daily life, death and the roles of women, Iturbide's photographs share visual stories of cultures in constant transitional periods.
Featuring over 200 photographs, this expanded edition book comprises one of the most comprehensive explorations of Iturbide's career to date, gathering an impressive and widespread selection of her work, curated by Marta Dah . It includes some of her best-known images, such as Frida Kahlo's Bedroom (2005), Those Who Live in the Sand (1979) and Juchit n (1979), as well as many lesser-known works. She pays special attention to her most iconic images and offers a cross-sectional journey from her earliest projects to her most recent creations. Over the course of her four-decade career, Iturbide has built up a poetic language of images and symbols; a consistent preoccupation is the juxtaposition between urban and rural life. The subjects of her black-and-white photography mostly reside in Latin America but encompass India, Europe and Asia as well. This volume provides an essential overview of her accomplishments.
