About
Devoted to the photographic work of Rafael Goldchain, the title echoes the artist’s personal odyssey in search of his Latin American heritage. The result, however, is not simply a document of a land, but a fabrication woven from threads of history, myth, popular culture and politics – a revelation of the artist’s vision of a rediscovered world.
The photographic portfolio of twelve colour plates is introduced by noted anthologist and author Alberto Manguel and accompanied by an essay by photographer and publisher Michael Torosian.
