About the book

Massive photographic edition dedicated to film director Gabriel Figueroa who played a key role in establishing Mexico's visual identity and a central figure of Mexico's golden age of cinema. The book recapitulates Figueroa's genius, his long professional career and his legacy, particularly his masterly use of chiaroscuro, and the development of a style based on his principle of "curvilinear perspective", a practice that merged the latest cinematographic technologies with the Mexican muralist art. This retrospective edition is composed largely of still photographs, posters, and archival documents and is one of the most comprehensive graphic documentation on the work of this Mexican extraordinary photographer and cinematographer.
