MUTIS DURAN, Santiago. A scenario to read Nereo López (photographer). Nómadas [online]. 2009, n.31, pp.201-210. ISSN 0121-7550.

This article presents a critique of the Nereo López work which leaves off from the usual assessments of his work as a "minor artist" or as "the photographer of things anonymous", to show, as a change, the uniqueness of his eye in that it sees the face of the other equally. Based on photographs, it shows, on one hand, the absurdity of civilized models that are imposed on development plans, bringing "regimes of terror" to marginalized regions, and, on the other hand, the dignity of the anonymous people expressed in the photographer's lens. Using the Nereo's work, in a "simple" and "friendly" way the article invites us to respect a world which we have treated brutally.

Palavras-chave : Nereo López; Colombian photography; Colombian art; criticism.
