From 19 November 2013 to 6 April 2014, the Fondation Cartier pour
l'art contemporain will be showing America Latina 1960-2013,
organized in collaboration with the Amparo Museum in Puebla
(Mexico). The exhibition offers a new perspective on Latin American
photography from 1960 to today, focusing on the relationship
between text and the photographic image. Bringing together more
than seventy artists from eleven different countries, it shows the
great diversity of photographic practices by presenting the work of
documentary photographers as well as that of contemporary artists
who appropriate the medium in different ways. This catalogue of the
exhibition offers a vast panorama of the artistic production of the
last fifty years. Including over 400 black-and-white and color
reproductions, it explores the wealth of photographic work while
shedding light on the historical and artistic context that spawned
it. In addition to scholarly texts and artist bios, descriptions of
works and a detailed timeline provide a deeper understanding of the
visual languages specific to the continent. Chronicling the vital
legacy of Latin American artists, the book shows the scope of their
influence beyond their cultural and geographical territory.
