Cuba beyond all clichés: a black-and-white documentation of the many faces of the Caribbean island Claire Garoutte and Anneke Wambaugh are not only friends, they also have a lot in common: Both are from Seattle, both are internationally successful documentary and street photographers, and both share a passion for Cuba. Since 1994, this passion has led the two photographers to return to the Caribbean island time and again to document the daily lives of the Cuban people, their traditions, and the changes the country has undergone over the years. Candid, unadorned black-and-white images reveal humorous, enigmatic, and often surreal moments of everyday life in Cuba, opening our eyes to the many different realities of this multifaceted country. By eschewing technical gimmicks and concentrating on the essentials, the two photographers manage to authentically capture the fascinating soul of Cuba.
