Resumen del Libro:

As the poet and critic Roberto Tejada points out in his Preface, Sidelong Mirrors and Invisible Masks, Iturbides photographs underline time and again the rift between belonging and citizenship, rendered often against a backdrop of Mexican icons or heroes – be it the frail displacement of a rural campesino in Puebla, or the triumph of locals in East Los Angeles. Tejada, who has lived in Mexico for the last ten years, provides a trenchant illumination of this Mexican photographers use of her countrys lore and stories of conquest, its pre-Hispanic past, its indigenous visual vocabulary, and its centuries of tradition and ceremony, often infused with Christian iconography.
