Photographs: collections; Jazz

In this photographic collection, seven photographers who have built their artistic reputation documenting Cuban jazz over the years, bring together images celebrating the musicians who have performed at Jazz Plaza – Havana’s annual international jazz festival.

These photographers present very personal, subjective views on the jazz performances that they document. The images themselves becoming silent participants in the events they show, demonstrating that without photography, jazz would not be the same.
