ISEA2012 Exhibition: Cars in the New Mexico Landscape
The National Hispanic Cultural Center’s newest partner, Casa Aurora Centro Cultural in Chihuahua, Mexico, brings a photographic essay titled Cars in the New Mexico Landscape by Carlotta Boettcher, a Cuban-born photographer. Boettcher says, “To view these former objects of glamour and desire, at one time treasured and pampered by their owners, and whose curving, strong, smooth sensual bodies I had lovingly restored, sanded, painted, rubbed and polished for hours, days and weeks on end, existing as discarded broken toys trashing the fragile New Mexico desert landscape, foretold the end of my career with cars.” This is part of the ISEA 2012 Conference.
