""La cámara como método" (The camera as a method) brings a renewed critical look at two inescapable references in the history of modern photography in Argentina: Grete Stern (Germany 1904-Argentina 1999), and her husband, photographer and filmaker Horacio Coppola (Argentina 1906-2012). This series of essays complicates periodization and places, rather fixed, in which they are inserted in dialogue with the international development of photographic modernism and the opening of photography to other aesthetic practices.. Foundational readings and new approaches by leading specialists expand the interpretation of the multifaceted corpus of both artists. The European journey, the training in the Bauhaus, the influence of avant-garde cinema and the New Objectivity, the look at Buenos Aires in modernization, the documentary and ethnographic paths, design, advertising and mass media frame an exploration of the visual method with which Stern and Coppola defined the modern experience. To complete this vision, we gather for the first time in a volume and in an exhaustive way, the first and programmatic reviews of his works, the articles, aesthetic reflections, essays and interviews that not only expand the context of meaning of his photographs, but also immerse us in the debates on modernity, tradition and avant-garde that dominated the first part of the twentieth century in which they actively participated establishing a fruitful aesthetic dialogue between Europe and Latin America."
