MERCI
GONAIVES - a Photographer's account of Haiti and the February revolution.
"Merci
Gonaives signals his return to political subject matter . . . As
a reporter, he refuses to sum up an event. As an artist , he radiates
distaste for the idea of the single perfect image. Our North American
consciousness is, he believes, "blocked by disease," and he uses
the accompanying text to question the comfortable esthetics we employ
to semi-digest outside information."
Daniel
Jesse Wolff, The Threepenny Review, Fall 1988.
