In the end, his conclusions offer an abundant contribution to the study of photography in our region of the world."--Daniel Escorza Scorpio Mejía, author of Agustín Víctor Casasola: El fotógrafo y su agencia"The Study of Photography in Latin America makes the case for both the importance of Latin America to the global development of photography and the richness and originality of its recent contributions to photographic and visual studies.
