PAZ ERRÁZURIZ, LA MANZANA DE ADÁN (ADAM’S APPLE)
“The need to investigate environments wholly condemned in the oppressive context of the Chilean dictatorship (1973–90) led the photographer Paz Errázuriz to embark on a project on marginalized subjects that she would pursue over the course of several years. She visited brothels: La Palmera in Santiago and La Jauja, a transvestite brothel in Talca. She photographed those spaces from 1982 to 1990, when her book La manzana de Adán (Adam's apple), with texts by Claudia Donoso, was published.” - Hammer
