Abstract
Indeed, a short history of Mexican photography. As the author
states, to produce a history two concepts/themes need to be
asserted: 1. photography in relationship with the other plastic
arts, and 2. the more specific Latin American situation and the
role culture plays within those societies. In the cultural
sphere a polarity exists between nationalism and
internationalism,'between the need to establish an independent
identity and the desire to participate in the great cultural
movements of the time'. Against this background, the author
tries to construct a model of Mexican photography.
