About the Artist
Rodrigo Moya (born 1934) is a Mexican photojournalist, writer and publisher who is best known for his photographic work from 1955 to 1968. He mostly photographed for newspapers and magazines, documenting social and political upheavals in Central and South America – namely Guatemala, Venezuela and Cuba.
About the Publisher
The publishing house of Casa Amèrica Catalunya takes its name from the maximum distance that separates Latin America (Hanga Roa, Easter Island) from Catalonia (Portlligat, Alt Empordà). Its purpose is to build a bibliographical bridge that approximates the realities of the two geographical extremes.
