BOOK / TERRITORIOS. Santiago Arau

ART / PHOTOGRAPHY

"Territorios" brings together seven years of Santiago Arau's work in a single volume. This first editorial glimpse into Arau's extensive body of work presents nearly 300 photographs of the 1,964,375 kilometers of the vast and complex Mexican territory, taken from above. To date, "Territorios" is the most comprehensive naturalistic photographic compendium about Mexico. The uniqueness of "Territorios" lies in the unprecedented perspective provided by the drone camera and the artistic sensitivity of Arau's experienced eye. This aerial journey is accompanied by brief essays written by Vivian Abenshushan, Luigi Amara, Julia Carabias, Juan José Kochen, Sergio Rodríguez Blanco, and Pablo Soler Frost. While "Territorios" is a book that embodies Santiago Arau's photographic project on paper, it is also an overwhelming contemporary testimony to the natural grandeur, cultural diversity, and social contingencies of a country in constant transformation.
