De Zuviría, Facundo

(Argentina 1954)

De Zuviría is a prolific photographer who also plays an active role in a range of related institutional and editorial activities. The central themes of his work are Buenos Aires and its neighborhoods: distinctive buildings and facades, stained-glass windows, mannequins, small stores, vignettes of everyday urban architecture, his intimate view of the city’s true nature. De Zuviría crafts a portrait of the soul of Buenos Aires, an urban iconography rendered first in black-and-white, then in color.
