The Philippines Rediscovered Burning Heart : A Portrait of the Philippines
by Marissa Roth (Photographer), Jessica Hagedorn, Hagedorn Roth

Rizzoli International Publications
Paperback - 152 pages
May 1999
Price $50.00

I recently got to see the photographs that make up this book at the Sepia Gallery in NYC. These photos are superb and very powerful. Roth has a fantastic eye--her photographs are beautifully composed, showing great attention to the nuances and details of her subjects. She has obviously spent a lot of time immersed in Filipino life and culture--and has the skills to capture it to film. As a photographer, I found her work very inspiring. Beyond the formal qualities, her photos present very moving glimpses of Filipino life. They are very powerful and showcase a wide range of scenes. I highly recommend this collection of photos (especially if you cannot see the exhibit in person).
