Description
Bolivia is a collection of photographs that reveal a long-unchanged Bolivia, where rural and indigenous populations live primarily from the land. Taken over five trips between 1997 and 2015, these black-and-white images highlight the harsh beauty of the landscape, the ravaged faces of the peasants, and the magic of ancestral traditions.
Depardon's photographs take us on a journey through Bolivia's diverse landscapes and cultures, from the desert plains of Salar de Uyuni to the serenity of Lake Titicaca. The book culminates in the discovery of Vallegrande, a location that has had a profound impact on the collective memory.
