At a time when President Obama is extending a hand of friendship to Latin America, Cdags.org has its first artist gallery from that part of the world. Carlos Dario Albornoz is based in Argentina and is a prolific producer of Daguerreotypes. In his own words;

“Working in this art it has made me know a wide range of ways for capturing an image and then making the final copy… I believe that the technique is liberating. The expressiveness can be found in the combination of the technique and the creativeness; that is why going deeper into the technique frees me and makes possible every take, knowing beforehand the possibilities that each material, each artifact, each process offers me.”
