Zaterdag 31 mei komt een nieuw boek uit van David Alan Harvey (bekend van National Geographic en zijn eerdere boek Cuba) onder de titel Divided Soul.
Divided Soul represents David Alan Harveys twenty-year journey through the Spanish and Portuguese diaspora in the Americas. In this selection of more than 100 colour photographs Harvey explores the exuberance and incongruities of Hispanic life and culture that hold for him an endless fascination. Since the 1970s Harvey has photographed in Spain, Portugal and throughout the New World, including Cuba, Mexico, Honduras, Brazil and Chile. A passionate and divided soul, where tradition and ritual are inherent in everyday life, is revealed in these photographs of pulsating carnivals in Trinidad, fervent religious ceremonies in Brazil, and intense Easter parades in Puerto Rico. Harvey minimizes the distance between himself and his subjects, producing images that capture the natural choreography of people within places and that resonate with magic.
Harvey is a member of the prestigious Magnum photographic agency and has worked for National Geographic since the 1970s. He is a former National Press Photographers Association Magazine Photographer of the Year and won an Eisenstadt Award in 2000.
