Manuel
Alvarez Bravo
February - March, 2001
Gallery Two
Setting an historical context for the contemporary
Latin American work in Gallery One, this portfolio
of images by Mexico's greatest 20th Century
photographer explores Bravo's attempt to return,
though the photographic imagination, to the primal
origins of his culture. To touch the collective
memory of Mexico's traditional past through the
modern technology of the camera.
The ACP gratefully acknowledges the generous loan
of these works from the contemporary photographic
collection of the National Gallery of Australia

Reflecting upon the nature of recollection and
the facility of photography to evoke the past, this
exhibition brings together artists from Mexico,
Argentina and Colombia who each present a personal
meditation upon memory. From the collective memory
of folkloric wisdom to private reminiscence of
childhood; from the émigré's passion
for images of home to the psychological trauma of
the political prisoner, the works run the gamut of
emotion, matched by a diversity of photo-media
including the extremely rare Fresson process.
This exhibition is presented in association with
the Alliance Française. The work of Maruch
Sántiz Gómez is presented courtesy of
Galeria OMR, Mexico City.
