Product Description
A collection of black and white photographs taken in Afghanistan during the early 1970s. Fifty duotone images are reproduced along with essays revealing Afghanistan then and now. The photographs in this collection reveal an Afghanistan very different from the one we know today. Here we see not just an Afghanistan at peace, but a people at peace with themselves, going about their daily routines. They portray the laughing children and the handsome faces of a rugged and courageous people living as they have for centuries. From intimate portraits to the towering 5th century Buddhas emblematic of Afghanistan's history the photos are a refreshing change from the ubiquitous dreary images we see today. The book has been published to accompany the exhibition at the San Francisco Public Library, October 11, 2008 through January 18, 2009.
