Entrevista para Jornalista Cubana Maribel Acosta Damas

El desgarramiento de Achutti, fotógrafo viajero de las muchas pieles

Por Maribel Acosta Damas(*) / Colaboración Especial para Resumen Latinoamericano Cuba.

Luiz Eduardo Robinson Achutti es hijo de una generación de intelectuales y artistas brasileños que apostó a la utopía de un mundo mejor. Es Profesor titular del Departamento de Artes Visuales del Instituto de Artes de la Universidad Federal de Río Grande del Sur (UFRGS. En su recorrido por la fotografía de prensa primero y luego por la fotoetnografía, fue incorporando pieles al recorrer su país y muchos otros. La mirada antropológica pasó a ser parte de una obra que tiene anclada su raíz en la vida humana. Medio siglo es mucho tempo para mirar y narrar. Ahí ha estado Achutti. Contando. Visitó Cuba por primera vez en 1986 y se metió en la piel de la isla, sin divagaciones, dejándose llevar entre la gente en un camino preciso y extraordinario. Igual su lente relató los viajes por los países del antiguo Campo Socialista./.../
