Graciela Iturbide "Celebration"
Throckmorton Fine Art
This event has ended.
Iturbide’s oeuvre, almost all of it black-and-white, is documentary-like, with her images telling—or suggesting—stories. She is fascinated with culture, ritual, and everyday life, but always attentive to the unusual, the unexpected. She has said of herself: “I insist on astonishment.” As a tribute to Iturbide’s recent award from the Hasselblad Foundation, Throckmorton Fine Art shares images from throughout Iturbide’s productive and accomplished 30-plus years as a photographer. The strength of the images suggests why Graciela Iturbide has been called one of Mexico’s greatest living artists.
Graciela Iturbide has won the 2008 Hasselblad Award in Photography.
