Description:
The lens of French Photographer, Anne Casale, who has resided in the Dominican Republic for 20 years, has captured from the air aspects of the country that were, until now, unfamiliar even to a large number of Dominicans.
“The book showcases the country in a new light – avoiding the reproduction of frequently used images,” articulate the editors.
Dominican Republic: New Perspectives, comprised of 400 aerial images taken from a helicopter is divided in 9 chapters – Reflections of Light, Coasts, Heights, Plains, History, City, People, Tourism and Work – that contain text pertaining to various aspects of the country’s history, culture, environment and contemporary life.

GFDD and FUNGLODE hope that this book will serve as a point of reference for the national population and the numerous Dominicans that reside outside of the country, as well as for foreign visitors, the nation’s commercial sector, students, art and photography aficionados and all those interested in developing a better understanding of the Dominican Republic. |
