the black snapper

If a week of Argentinian photography has something special, than that should be found in the distinct approach that our photographers take towards our land and people. Everything is always surprising. You never know what you will get when you are out there in your car, carrying a camera, shooting photographs. A permanent road movie is what Pablo lives when he drives through our Pampas, looking for images. People, animals, scenery, a mixture of discoveries and unexpected encounters. Pablo received a Guggenheim award to shoot around Argentina, and he has been doing this for years. He loves the countryside and its people. But he is also a bit skeptical. His essay is an ongoing project, a changing scene, a broken sign, a car to sleep in, a photographic discovery, a simple idea: to shoot around unknown territory.
