Catalogue Note
Nacho Lopez, né en 1924, est considéré comme le plus grand photojournaliste mexicain du milieu du XXe siècle. Ce volume de la Revista Artes de Mexico rassemble une série de photographies de México dans les années 1960. Il s'inscrit dans la lignée des livres publiés à la même époque sur les métropoles du monde entier, et il s'en dégage l'influence du photographe William Klein.
Nacho Lopez exécuta ses photographies avec un profond regard humaniste montrant les difficultés de la vie quotidienne à Mexico. Ce volume présente des vues de la ville en plan large puis de ses habitants (couples, enfants, fêtes religieuses, spectacles, manifestations politiques, prisonniers) dans une atmosphère assez sombre.
