The new volume of the PHotoBolsillo collection focuses its gaze on the Venezuelan photographer Vasco Szinetar, whose career is strongly linked to the history of his country. His passion for culture has led him to portray writers and artists for 40 years, while continuing to develop into the most experimental profile of his work, where he conjures the past and death from an intimate and close experience. With family roots closely linked to Europe, Vasco Szinetar soon discovered his passion for culture in his native Venezuela, which led him in 1979 to become a photographer in the literary supplement of the newspaper El Nacional de Venezuela. Later he studied cinema in London, which allowed him to learn to organize images in order to build a certain syntax. Vasco Szinetar (Caracas, 1958), in addition to his career as a photographer, works as curator, and researcher at the Archivo de Fotografía Urbana de Caracas and publishes poetry and photography books, both his own and those of others.
