Isabel Muñoz: Intimate Ethiopian Portraits

Spanish photographer Isabel Muñoz has won two World Press Awards for her artful documentary photographs from around the world. She is now presenting a stunning body of intimate portraits of people from south Ethiopia, capturing dignity and beauty — in scarified skin, piercings and ornamentation — yet bringing into question the ability to conduct real anthropological work of ancient tribes in the 21st century. Galerie Seine 51 in Paris shows 30 platinum prints and 8 color prints, October 28 through December 3, 2005. The artist will be present at the opening night October 27.
