Description
It is inspired by the work of Martín Chambi (1891-1973), the first Amerindian photographer to achieve international acclaim, albeit posthumously. in a career spanning half a century, he recorded as much of Peruvian life, architecture, and landscape as possible, having had the good luck to train with Max T. Vargas in the southern Peruvian town of Arequipa as a young boy. Cinco Danzas de Chambi is my musical interpretation of five photos from Chambi's vast collection of pictures. — Gabriela Lena Frank
