“Horsemen of the Americas”, is an ongoing personal study of the most formidable working partnership ever forged between two living beings, that of Man and Horse. Since 2005 when I began photographing the “Horsemen of the Americas” until today, I have identified and shot 8 different groups in 8 countries from the Canadian Plains to Patagonia. Often living with them for months at a time. In the United States and Canada these horsemen are called cowboys, in Mexico they are known as charros, in Ecuador as chagras, in Colombia and Venezuela as llaneros, in Peru as chalanes and qorilazos, in Chile they are called the huasos, Brazil has its pantaneiros and vaqueiros, and Uruguay and Argentina’s the gauchos.Projected launch date spring 2013.
