Graciela Iturbide has found her inner theme photographing the Zapotec women of Juchitan and the Mixtec goat butchers of Oaxaca, in the company of Nobel laureates and world-renowned artists, among mourners at Mexican cemeteries and Indian death houses.  In Eyes to Fly With, which includes both iconic images and previously unpublished work, Graciela Iturbide has assembled both a retrospective of her career and an introspective self-portrait—in short, an artist's art book. Graciela Iturbide's photographs are included in the collections of major museums throughout the world, and have been previously published in numerous books. She lives in Mexico City. The Wittliff Collections hold the major collection of Iturbide’s work.
