James Mollison: The Memory of Pablo Escobar
"As a History major in undergraduate studies I learned, sad to say in my final year, that History is not an exact science. It is biased, based on what the individual documenting the event brings as baggage and sometimes, what political motivational factors might be at work. James Mollison and Rainbow Nelson's exploration of the life of Pablo Escobar The Memory of Pablo Escobar, published by Chris Boot, is a well-documented biography of sorts, of the iconic figurehead of the Medellin drug cartel. Because of the many gaps that exist in Escobar's life, as a result of destroyed, potential evidence, Mollison and Nelson allow each archive to speak for itself. Presented as chapters, the archives display images from a newspaper, a press photographer, the police files and a few friends. The final chapters include some of Mollison's Colors Magazine-esque photographs of Escobar's family, friends and acquaintances along with artifacts from his life."—Melanie McWhorter, photo-eye Book Division Manager
