Exhibit: “The Goat’s Dance: Photographs by Graciela Iturbide”


Through April 13, 2008 at The Getty Center

This exhibition loosely surveys more than 30 years of Mexican photographer Graciela Iturbide’s international career by highlighting major series produced in Mexico and the United States. The breadth and depth of the selection has been made possible through the generosity of the artist, who opened her personal archive, and the magnanimity of Brentwood collectors Daniel Greenberg and Susan Steinhauser.

They have followed Iturbide’s work for more than 10 years and assembled a wide-ranging collection of her images, including many of the pictures created in the remote southern Mexican city of Juchitán, Oaxaca during the 1980s. Reflecting the extensive and discriminating Greenberg-Steinhauser collection, this important series, central to Iturbide’s body of work, is a primary component of this exhibition.
