Bazan Cuba

14 years of life in Cuba. The first book of the Cuban Trilogy.

Al Campo

The second part of the Cuban trilogy, using color to explore the amazing Cuban countryside.

Isla

Isla represents the third book of my Cuban trilogy. It’s a love affair and final goodbye to this special island.

Bazan’s fourth monograph about Cuba, is a deeply personal book that documents Bazan’s emotional return journey to his adopted, spiritual home following ten years of painful exile, in the days, months and years following the death of Fidel Castro on November 25, 2016.

Before You Grow Up

This book is a celebration of life...a hymn to the time I have shared with my two families in the only existence I’m allowed to live.

Latin American Cantos

For many years, I have drawn inspiration from several Latin American countries, particularly some microcosms of Brazil, Mexico, and Peru. Thanks to my workshops I have been able to return to the same locations for almost two decades. I am very lucky to have had the desire, health, time, and the students to go with me. More and more I feel that my pictures are becoming poems: haikus where less is always more.

To organize these visual poems, I have been inspired by Dante Alighieri’s structure of cantos, long poetic divisions used in the Divine Comedy. My Latin American Cantos are grouped both by country and by theme. Like in most of my work the main subjects are daily-life, faith, and our relation to mother earth.

I hope to eventually self-publish these cantos in sets of three books each beginning with the first three cantos devoted to the city of Salvador, in Bahia, Brazil, a place I considered my new Havana and my new Cuba during the long years that I couldn’t return to the island. With the Latin American Cantos I’ll share a significant part of my photographic work devoted to the geographical areas where I always felt at home. EB
