Paz Errázuriz (born 2 February 1944 in Santiago, Chile) is a Chilean photographer. Errazuriz documented marginalized communities such as sex workers, psychiatric patients and circus performers during the military dictatorship of Chile.[3][4] Errázuriz’s has said about her work: ‘They are topics that society doesn’t look at, and my intention is to encourage people to dare to look’.[4] She is the co-founder of the Association of Independent Photographers (AFI)[5]

She is also a collaborator for the magazine Apsi and of diverse press agencies.[6] She is known for her work in marginalized communities. Errazuriz goes on to say about her work: "...what I photograph has to do with people who are not at the center, who stand outside and have always been subordinated to power".[7] Errazuriz began her career in the 1970s, and ever since she has been a voice for subordinate groups in society, more specifically, Chile.[8]

She was a primary school at the time when she started her photography, and was slowly taking pictures 'under the radar'. [9]

Artworks

[edit]

Errazuriz has put out multiple collections that includes Sex, Instrument of Survival, which was published in her 2016 book Paz Errazuriz, which contains multiple collections of her works.[10] The photographs featured in Sex, Instrument of Survival were taken from several of her more specific collections, specifically Adam's apple, Brothels, and Dolls: Chile-Peru border.[10] Also known as La Manzana de Adán, Adam's apple is a collection of photographs taken from 1982 through 1987 and depicts cross-dressing male prostitutes working in brothels located in Santiago and Talca, Chile.[11] Many of the people who were photographed in this collection feared for their life, as homosexuality was deemed particularly unacceptable and shameful during this time in Chilean history. This made cross-dressing a stressful and dangerous thing for these male prostitutes to do, despite them seeing it as an outward expression of their true selves. Errazuriz used the medium of photography to show the marginalization of this population. [11]

Another collection of photographs by Errazuriz are her collection Impediments of the Gaze, which was published in her 2016 book as well called, Paz Errazuriz.[10] The pictures featured in this collection were taken from her series called, Blindness and Blinding Light. In this series Errazuriz wanted to highlight the conditions of being blind and a condition called achromatopsia. She specifically showcased these conditions as a metaphor to most of her work being black and white. [12] This work was done in 2003 in Chile. In the series Stages of Life (And Death) Errazuriz displays photographs of children and elderly individuals to showcase the different stages of life and death. [13] These photographs range in dates from the late 1990s to the early 2000s. Through these collections Errazuriz looks at the different aspects of being human through the lens of her camera.

This book also includes a collection called Agents and Spaces of Social Change. This collection featured the oppression that Chile was facing during the dictatorship, and the progression of it getting better and sometimes worse. This collection contains black and white photographs taken in the ranges from the lates 1970s to the early 2000s. Errazuriz was trying to show the different aspects of people's lives during the time of the dictatorship. [10]

Style and Influences

[edit]

The photography of Paz Errazuriz looks at different aspects of human life. She has been doing photography for a little over forty years. She more specifically looked at the daily life of citizens in the city of Chile during the political regime. She is drawn to capture populations that are marginalized and were affected by the government during the 70s and 80s. She wanted to capture what their experience was like whether it was daily life or social movements. She captured photos of lower class status citizens in Chilean society during this distressful period in history.[14]

Errazuriz always made sure to have her camera in hand when in public places because she wanted to document the circumstances that Chile was experiencing during the time period of most of her photographs. It was not acceptable at this time for women to be taking pictures on the streets of Chile during the time of the dictatorship, so for Errazuriz to be doing so it was a bold statement.[15] Physically taking pictures with a camera was a symbolic statement for standing up against the military regime during this time. Errazuriz was personally effected by the Military dictatorship of Chile (1973–1990) at this time. Her own house was raided by the Pinochet Police in 1973 [16], so she understood personally the circumstances of this period in history. Errazuriz made a statement about taking photos during the time of the dictatorship saying, "'The need to photograph was a constant, but one had to be extremely careful' – Paz Errazuriz".[11]
