“The Latino men all seem to cry at a moment’s notice—you mention their mothers and they all cry.” That was the experience of photographer Timothy Greenfield-Sanders as he shot The Latino List, a sparkling new show of portraits of Hispanics at the Brooklyn Museum. No doubt he's right about tearful Latinos, but the best thing about Greenfield-Sanders’ show is that you won’t find a single such ethnic generalization—accurate or not—anywhere in it. The 25 shots in the exhibition, all taken over the last 16 months, barely let you guess what unites them; rather than standing for what’s “Latin” in general, their subjects stand for themselves, in all their variety.
