Argentina Down and Out — In Colour

Last March our correspondent, Valério Bispuri, has returned to Buenos Aires and other provinces of Argentina, to complet his black and white photographs (see in the latest features section). He followed the evolution of the economical crisis, in order to be able to put images and words on this disaster. At the same time he has doubled his work in Colour. Here is a selection of his best pictures. In a few days, Argentina will vote to elect their next president.
