Barbara Anello: Photographs of Southeast Asia and Morocco

Overview

ARTstor is collaborating with Barbara Anello to share approximately 750 images of the architecture, arts, and culture of Southeast Asia and Morocco in the Digital Library. Anello, a photographer and art historian, travelled extensively throughout Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, and Morocco from 2007-2008. Her field photography focuses on architecture, both historical and vernacular, and aspects of traditional art and culture. In Vietnam, Cambodia, and Indonesia, Anello photographed the domestic architecture of rural areas and ethnic minorities, documenting how traditional building forms have been preserved or lost over time. Anello also captured historical sites, whether the royal complexes in Huè, Vietnam and Phnom Penh, Cambodia, or ancient Cham and Khmer temple ruins throughout the region. Similarly, in Morocco, Anello photographed the traditional earthen architecture of Ait Ben Haddou and Skoura, while also documenting the ancient Roman ruins in Volubilis. In addition, Anello recorded her field work with a cooperative of traditional Berber weavers, "Tissage Ain Leuh," in Ain Leuh, a village in the Moyen Atlas Mountains.
