Magnum Photos

Exhibition - Shadow Play: A Photographic Journey Through Indonesia 

Magnum Photographers 

Asia Society and Museum, New York, NY
From 24 May to 21 August 2005

Nearly fifty photographs selected by Asia Society from the archives of Magnum Photos, the renowned photography collective. Beginning in the late forties at the time of Indonesia's independence and continuing until today, the photographs capture the political, economic, cultural and sociological landscape of this nation - as diverse in its geographical topography as its many peoples and faiths.
