Additional Details

A counterculture photobook by Venezuelan photographer Paolo Gasparini (born 1934). Its images of police repression, squalor, consumerism, and political graffiti are contrasted with a more uplifting section on Cuba at the end, with the clear intent to suggest an alternate path out of capitalism for Latin America.
