| Luis Delgado Qualtrough | |
Luis Delgado Qualtrough (1952) became a photographer in Mexico where he grew up. He began his work documenting folk mores and customs as well as pre-Columbian artifacts. Today he is particularly interested in furthering the language of visual narrative. He now resides in San Francisco, California. |
|
| About the Artist | |
Luis Delgado creates photography based prints, books, and installations with history and societal systems as his theme. Using a visual language of icons and gestures assembled into compound images to create narratives that address this issue. This language, which he has gathered over many years, consists of photographs of iconography and inanimate representations from many historical and mundane settings throughout the world, as well as imagery taken from mass media outlets. The goal is to achieve a uniquely personal social commentary and analysis using this language of iconography as its voice. |
