Antonio Quintana, perhaps the greatest photographer in Chile, had a prominent disciple who would accompany him for decades in the art of light: Domingo Ulloa. From his teacher, Ulloa not only inherited the chair of Photojournalism in the School of Journalism of the University of Chile, but also the rigor in the subjects, the artistic and social sensitivity, and the mastery of the technique; the framing and the art of the laboratory. An important part of his work served as a basis for the Exposition Face of Chile, of October 1960, sponsored by the university, which traveled the continents with three hundred and fifty large-scale extensions. The itinerancy of the exhibition concluded in 1969, at the Osaka World Fair. Fifty of the photographs that make up this volume were part of that show that revealed Chile to the world.
