I’ve always found Stefan Ruiz’s imagery (especially the landscapes) really beautiful, and tonight he’s speaking at Aperture about his book, People:
As
part of the ongoing lecture series hosted by Aperture and presented by
the department of photography, Parsons The New School for Design, Stefan Ruiz will discuss the work from his recently published monograph, People
(Chris Boot, 2006), which gathers striking portraits of Mexican soap
stars, Cuban mental asylum residents, Texan cowgirls, and Rwandan
refugees. Ruiz’s subjects reveal themselves and their vulnerability
through his raw and edgy vision. While serving as Creative Director for
COLORS magazine from 2002 to 2004, Ruiz also taught art at San
Quentin State Prison. His work has been exhibited at the Havana
Biennale, 2003; PhotoEspaña, Madrid, 2003; and an exhibition of the
Televisa Studios series is now traveling around Europe.
