Graciela Iturbide . Eyes to Fly With

In the organizer's words:

C/O Berlin presents the first major retrospective of Graciela Iturbide's (*1942, Mexico) work in Berlin. Developed in close collaboration with the artist, the exhibition brings together iconic series and rarely shown photographs and provides a deep insight into an oeuvre that has shaped the image of Mexico and its people for over five decades. Iturbide's work explores the often intimate relationships between identity, ritual and society. With documentary precision and poetic sensitivity, she focuses her gaze on communities and everyday life in which questions of belonging, cultural diversity and female self-determination take center stage - from Juchitán and the nomadic Seri community in northern Mexico to her long-term project White Fence in East Los Angeles. Her photographs of Frida Kahlo's Casa Azul and works from India and Bangladesh also show the extent to which themes such as spirituality, transience and the tension between tradition and modernity permeate her visual language.
