Today we rebuild a photographer that exists in our political and historical memory with incalculable charge of cruelty and despair which meant his death, and of which we were unaware of his images. In the words of Claudio Pérez, "to be a photographer during the dictatorship was a political militancy. Rodrigo was and still is. His photographs are timeless and reflected in a political and aesthetic sense every day, intimate and public, displacing the canons of documentary photography to multiple representations. This is how he is revalued, because it is not just the act of capturing a moment to register it within a history (how many times has rated him), but also a support to translate deep and critical visions that emerge from the authorial. Rodrigo Rojas De Negri (b. Valparaiso, Chile ), approach to photography is due to the melancholy of the exile, nostalgia and his interest in returning to Chile. They were his infinite curiosity for life, family situations and political moments that marked its history. His photographs are a story told in the first person. To confront them, they become the mirror of ourselves, even those moments in which we do not repair, and generate in our memory the photographs that we never capture. His authorial gaze was able to merge with the photographic apparatus, incorporating it into its existence to make it disappear. For Rodrigo, the camera became an extension of the body."
