The art corner presents: how four Mexican photographers captured the Mayan Riviera’s raw beauty
Welcome to the Art Corner, a podcast from Artnet News that delves into the places where the art world meets the real world, bringing each week’s biggest story down to earth. Join us each week for an in-depth look at what’s most important in museums, the art market, and much more, with input from our own writers and editors, as well as artists, curators, and other top experts in the field. .
This special episode of the Art Corner is produced in partnership with Belmond.
Recently, four photographers got a dream assignment. They were sent to the Mayan Riviera to capture the uniqueness and beauty of the landscape. But it wasn’t all as peaceful as it sounds. The creators battled hurricane season and extremely tight deadlines to get the shots they wanted.
The result of their hard work is “Fotografía Maroma,” a collection of photographs commissioned by Belmond. The images will be displayed at Maroma, Belmond’s hotel in the Riviera Maya, when it reopens in May 2023. Before then, however, they are going on a world tour. It begins with a show in the Miami Design District during Art Basel Miami Beach and continues with presentations at ZonaMaco in Mexico City in February and Photo London in May.
In partnership with Belmond, the Art Corner talked to the curators behind the project. Fariba Farshad is co-founder and director of Photo London and Patricia Conde is the founder of Patricia Conde Galeria in Mexico City. Together, they gave us the lowdown on why they chose these four photographers, how the project came together in record time, and what it shows us about Mexico’s vibrant photography scene.
