| Notes | Valparaiso published by Éditions Hazan in 1991 is another of the major works that is nearly impossible to find. This beautifully produced title contains most of the photographs of his home country that we may be familiar with. Started in 1957 while traveling with Pablo Neruda for Du Magazine (published in 1965) it was a project that Larrain would work on for several years. As reflected in the earlier vagabond street children series he originally established his voice with Larrain challenges the edges of his frames creating new and dynamic compositions. Often choosing vantage points that mimic the viewpoints of the stray dogs that appear in the photos Larrain wanders and observes the life of this port city. Things get interesting at night when the bars are full of sailors dancers and desire. |
