Based on ten years research in public and private photographic archives in Mexico  the United States  Guatemala  and Europe  Fuga Mexicana provided the first comprehensive survey of Mexican photography from the advent of the daguerreotype in 1839 to the present. Now this benchmark publication is available in English as Mexican Suite. Olivier Debroise and Stella de S Rego have revised this edition to include more current material and explanatory notes for an audience less familiar with Mexican history. They have also eliminated some of the general history of photography and added more of the early history of photography in Mexico  as well as many new  previously unpublished images.The book is organized both chronologically and thematically  which allows viewer\/readers to follow the evolution of major photographic genres and styles. Debroise also examines the role of photography in the development of modern Mexico and the influence of prominent foreign photographers such as Edward Weston  Tina Modotti  and Henri Cartier-Bresson. In its totality  Mexican Suite constitutes an extended essay on Mexican culture as a whole and on how this culture has been read  interpreted  and imagined.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45647004074037,"sku":"ByrdShop_0292716117","price":54.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780292716117.jpg?v=1781685172","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/mexican-suite-a-history-of-photography-in-mexico-9780292716117","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
