Abstract

This article is a re-evaluation of the positivist models that have sustained the histories of world photography, from which Latín America has been excluded. Consequently, it is necessary to redesign new conceptual and methodological approaches that give account of our own processes conceming photography. In our continent diere are many images without authorship, many traveling photographers who were spreading tracks at random. The preservation of the memory is necessary and this is the importance of the National and Regional Archive, a place where the multiple realities that bound us to photography are arranged to build this new photographic history of Latin America.
