Juan Arredondo Poets and Beggars, Musicians and Prophets, Warriors and Scoundrels
Colombian-American photographer and filmmaker Juan Arredondo presents his first publication, offering a deeply personal perspective on Colombia. Drawing on over fifteen years of reporting on armed conflict, memory, and migration, he balances intimacy with critical distance. Through portraits, landscapes, and fragments of everyday life, the book reflects the rhythms of daily existence alongside the country’s stark contrasts—revealing resilience, cultural richness, and the enduring imprint of violence across generations. Moving beyond a linear narrative, the work unfolds as a layered meditation on belonging, loss, and identity, situating personal history within broader social and political realities. Arredondo (b. 1977) has received numerous honors, including a World Press Photo Award and an Oscar nomination for best documentary film.
