Synopsis:

For seven years, Daniela Rossell did not visit the poor in suburban slums but this minuscule minority, Mexico's millionaires, merging modern contemporary and classical Mexican documentary photography. Despite their shrill, gaudy contents, the photographs exude a calmness and precision, which endow the viewer with the necessary distance. The photographs play to different human instincts, from voyeuristic curiosity, to disgust, to naive awe about the diversity of human lifestyles in the 21st century.

Review: "Ricas y Famosas," [...] is not an exercise in kitsch fantasy. [It] exposes the decadent, some say depraved, lifestyles of Mexico's wealthy elite. -- New York Times, September 25, 2002.
