"Cuba" By Andrew Moore - With Essays By Joel Smith & Orlando Luis Pardo Lazo

American photographer Andrew Moore began photographing in Cuba beginning 1998. Over the next fourteen years he made ten further visits, working to reveal the many facets of the island's unique character and life. In 2002, he published some of this work in "Inside Havana", which is now out of print.
Tis book includes many of Moore's older classic images but reconceives its predecessor with a new layout and finer, larger reproductions. Cuba also features many older photographs never previously published, as well as new photographs made specifically for this edition.
The afterword was especially commissioned for this edition from Orlando Luis Pardo Lazo, one of Cuba's leading independent bloggers. Working with a large format camera, Moore insightfully records the shifting fortunes of Cuba, in superb photographs full of painterly light and dynamic color. His images span a tremendous variety of subjects, ranging from humble interiors to magnificent modernism, as well as portraits and landscapes. One theme introduced in this revised version is the contrast between the frayed patinas of Cuban homes and the great, unspoiled beauty of the island's nature. Cuba is a stirring portrait of a country isolated from the globalized world, overflowing with its own remarkable riches. The photographs of Andrew Moore (born 1957) are represented in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum, Yale University Art Gallery, The Museum of Fine Arts Houston, the Library of Congress, the Israel Museum, the George Eastman House and the Canadian Centre for Architecture.
