Watch the trailer for Graciela Iturbide “Shadowlines” exhibition at The Photographers’ Gallery
The Photographers’ Gallery will host Mexican photographer Graciela Iturbide’s “Shadowlines”.
“Discover the world of Mexican photographer Graciela Iturbide (b. 1942, Mexico City) which she presents in black and white - or as she describes it, as "an abstraction of the mind" in Graciela Iturbide: Shadowlines at The Photographers’ Gallery from 14 June - 22 September 2024.
Widely recognised for the poetry and introspection of her images, Graciela Iturbide captures her subjects with depth and sensitivity. Her photography offers a unique perspective on Mexican society, often exploring themes of Mexican culture, identity and belonging, by combining a documentary and humanist approach with an imaginative quality of image making.
The exhibition will include works from several of her most iconic series, including Juchitán de las Mujeres (1979-1989), focusing on the matriarchal society of the Zapotec people of Tehuantepec, south-eastern Mexico. Having immersed herself in their lives for a decade, her photographs show the strength and vitality of the Juchitán women.
The exhibition is curated by Alexis Fabry in collaboration with Anna Dannemann, Senior Curator at The Photographers' Gallery.”
