It was not until this morning, while reading a review in the LA Times, Her view of Mexican life, that I found out about an exhibit of photographs by Graciela Iturbide, at the Rose Gallery(D-4), Bergamot Station Arts Centerin Santa Monica, 2525 Michigan Ave.
I was intrigued by the work of this photographer, when I heard her speak at the Skylight Studios, in conjunction with the REFUGEE exhibit at the Annenberg Space for Photographyin Century City. Please read my 2016 article in Cultural Weekly.
So I made plans to take the Expo Linefrom Culver City to the 26th Street/Bergamot Station stop. There is also ample parking, if you wish to drive.
It was a treat to see so many BW prints by this amazing woman in a show titled Hay Tiempo (There is Time). This is what her lifelong mentor, Manuel Alvarez Bravo, used to say to remind her to pause and observe.
The exhibit closes this Saturday May 18, so don’t delay, if you wish to see it.
