Bruno Dubner Argentina, 1978

Translated from Spanish

I research photography through what is put in front of it; I research what is put in front of the camera through photography. I am interested in photography as a medium and end in itself. This simultaneity is the raw material that I work with.

Investigo la fotografía a través de lo que se sitúa frente a la cámara, investigo lo que se sitúa frente a la cámara a través de la fotografía. Me interesa lo fotográfico como medio y como un fin en sí mismo. Esta simultaneidad es la materia prima con la cual trabajo.
