The history of Mexican photography has helped shape Mexico's global presence. Photographers like Elsa Medina, Lola Álvarez Bravo, Graciela Iturbide, Maya Goded, and Juan Rulfo have masterfully captured the life of buildings, homes, and streets in a rapidly developing nineteenth-century Mexico. As a result, the contemporary Mexican photography scene has become an essential tool for architecture, contributing to a deeper visual understanding of the works that rise day by day.
Photography and architecture are closely linked disciplines, a relationship strengthened by today's digital tools. From large wooden box cameras with emulsion plates to the small digital cameras in our smartphones, photographic tools have undoubtedly become more accessible to everyone, allowing people to gradually transition from spectators to creators.
