Chile from Within

"These images had to be taken by people who lived in Chile, from within, developed within the deafening din of an unending time. These images are confessional, suicidal; it hurt to take them… In spite of themselves, these photographers took pictures, sometimes not knowing of what. Later in the darkroom, in the exhibition gallery, with the passage of time, they discovered what they had made. The photos will never stop developing.” – Marco Antonio de la ParraTo commemorate the 50th anniversary of the bloody coup d'état in Chile, this new release of the digital edition of the Chile from Within E-book was first produced in 2013. Compiled by Susan Meiselas with Luis Weinstein and our colleagues, it includes additional historical material: audio interviews, contact sheets and archival footage. The original book was published by W.W. Norton in 1990.“Estas imágenes tenían que ser tomadas por gente que vivió en Chile, desde adentro, desarrolladas en medio del ensordecedor ruido de un tiempo que no terminaba Estas imágenes son confesionales, suicidas; hacía daño tomarlas… A pesar de si mismos, éstos fotógrafos tomaron fotos, a veces no sabiendo de qué. Más tarde, en el cuarto oscuro, en la galería de exposiciones, con el paso del tiempo, han ido descubriendo lo que habían hecho. Las fotos nunca dejarán de desarrollarse.” – Marco Antonio de la ParraPara conmemorar el cincuentenario del golpe de Estado, esta nueva edición digital de Chile from within, editada por Susan Meiselas, incluye nuevo material histórico: entrevistas con los fotógrafos, hojas de contactos y material visual de archivo.
