The Sound of Latin America
Our theme focus at Photo Basel 16 is Latin America and in particular the contemporary Cuban photographic scene. Since the revolution in Cuba in the 1960’s, photography has always played an important part of the art scene in Cuba and is a genre-supported by the party. It is these famous “Che” photographs by Alberto Korda or René Burri that have influenced our imagination with regard to the revolution and Cuban society up until today. By exhibiting the works of the photographers Juan Carlos Alom (1964, Havana) and René Peña (1957, Havana), we display two important representatives of Cuba’s post-1990 photographic scene. The works shown by Adrian Fernandez Milanes (1984, Havanna) are from the series “Epilogue II” and “To Be or To Pretend” – these are vibrant colour photographs by a promising young photographer from Havana. Balthasar Burkhard (1944-2010), a photographer known for his monochromatic black and white photography, will show his work “Mexico” from the “Cities” series. René Burri (1933-2014), Swiss Magnum photographer, will display well-known subjects from his Latin American series at our stand.
