Moya began his photojournalism career after apprenticing with Colombian photojournalist Guillermo Angulo, taking over Angulo’s job when he went to Italy to study cinema. For the next thirteen years, Moya worked for various news magazines covering stories in Mexico and Latin America, especially social and political upheavals such as guerrilla fighters in Venezuela and Guatemala. He also went in 1964 to Cuba to document the revolution there, and took a series of portraits of Che Guevara, including El Ché melancólico (Melancholy Che) one of two iconic images of Guevara. In 1968, Moya decided he could no longer make a living in photography and worked until the end of the decade as a magazine publisher and short story writer, leaving a large archived packed away. In the very late 1990s, a long illness forced him to move to open and reevaluate this archive and has since worked to promote these images. Personal lifeRodrigo Moya was born in Medillin, Colombia in 1934 to a Colombian mother and Mexican father.[4] Over his lifetime, he has been a scuba diver, writer, traveler, editor, photographer and leftist activist.[2] Moya’s father was a set designer with the Mexican theater company Hermanos Soler, when he went on tour with a production to Colombia.[1][5][6] There he met Moya’s mother, who marked him when she was no older than 17.[1] The couple remained in Colombia for a couple of years, where both Rodrigo and his younger sister Colombia were born. The family never returned to Colombia, but Moya’s mother taught him Colombian culture, which gave him a partial Colombian identity. Another influence of his mother was her amateur photography. According to Moya, she spent much time accompanied by a camera, and one of the few things she brought to Mexico from Colombia was her photo albums.[1] Moya received a 6x6cm camera from his father when he graduated from high school, and Moya began taking pictures of local places, his friends and trips.[6] Moya attended the Colegio Militar and then went to National Autonomous University of Mexico to study petrochemical engineering. However, he was a poor student and could not grasp advanced mathematics so he left.[1][7][8] At age twenty, he no longer lived with his parents and needed some way to earn a living. Some friends of his family wanted to start a television station in Colombia and they paid for him to attend an intensive course in television production and direction. When he was doing his first work in this field he met a Colombian photographer, Guillermo Angulo. When Angulo asked Moya about aspects of television cameras, Moya responded that he would teach him what he knew but in return Angulo needed to teach him about photography, especially the development process.[1][6][8] Angulo took Moya to the darkroom at the offices of Impacto magazine to learn. After seeing this process, he decided to be a photographer. Angulo took him in and made him an assistant and apprentice, learning as well from Portuguese art critic Antonio Rodriguez.[4][6] During his career as a photographer and later as a publisher, Moya’s house became a gathering place for Colombians in Mexico. He was friends with writer Gabriel García Márquez, who he met in the 1950s. In 1977, Moya took a notable photograph of García Márquez with a black eye he received from Mario Vargas Llosa.[7][9][10] At age 70, Moya suffered a long illness, which prompted him and his wife Susan Flaherty to move out of Mexico City into Cuernavaca, where the couple still lives.[3][7][8] The move prompted Moya to revisit the boxes of photographs and negatives from his photojournalism career. Along with photography experts and his wife’s graphic design skills, he has since reorganized and promoted these work.[8] This promotion of his earlier work gave him the opportunity to travel and visit Colombia for the first time in 2014.[1] Photojournalism career 1955 to 1967Angulo was chief photographer for Impacto magazine, and as his assistant, Moya did assignments that Angulo did not want. In 1955 Angulo want to Italy to study at Cine Cittá and Moya took over for him. This job lasted for about four years, until Moya decided to go freelance, working as a photojournalist and taking photographs related to the theater.[6][10] His freelance work and other photojournalism work lasted until 1968, during which time Moya collaborated with other magazines such as Sucesos, Siempre!, El Espectador, and Politica,[2][7][11] This career took Moya all over Mexico and to countries such as Panama, Ecuador, Haiti, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Guatemala and Venezuela.[12] He covered political unrest throughout Latin America in the 1950s and 1960s,[11] and was the only Latin American photographer to cover the invasion of the Dominican Republic by the United States.[11] In 1966 he traveled to the Venezuelan jungles of Sierra de Falcón to photograph a guerrilla movement there led by Che Guevara, invited by the soldiers themselves. This resulted in a series called Guerrillas in the mist, originally published in The Guardian.[4][10] Moya’s first trip to Cuba was in 1964 with writer Froylán Manjarrez and cartoonist Rius to capture the Cuban Revolution for a book which was never written. Over four weeks he took mostly photographs for newspapers. However, on the last day of the trip, they were granted an interview with Che Guevara, and Moya did a series of nineteen portraits of the revolutionary at the Central Bank of Cuba.[2] One notable photo from this series is El Ché melancólico (Melancholy Che), showing Che Guevara smoking a cigar, with a sad-like expression.[5] It is one of two iconic photos of Che Guevara.[3][12] While working as a photojournalist, he did street photography on the side.[11] When on assignment one camera was for taking the pictures for the job and the other for those for his interest and not of those for the newspapers.[13] During all of this time, Moya continued to develop his photography skills on his own.[6] Publishing and return to photographyMoya left photojournalism because he could no longer made a living at it,[12] taking only the occasional photograph such as a 1968 collaboration with Salvador Novo to provide the photographs for the book México,[7] and Garcías Márquez’s portrait of the English language version of One hundred years of solitude.[10] By the end of the 1960s, he had amassed an archive of about 40,000 images, which were then stored in his home and hardly touched until the end of the century.[9][12] In 1968, Moya started a small publishing company that published a monthly magazine called Técnica pesquera, which itself accumulated a large archive of photographs related to fishing and marine biology.[10][11] The enterprise lasted twenty two years, folding in 1990.[3][12] During these decades, Moya also became a writer of short fiction, with publications such as De lo que pudo haber sido (What Could Have Been) in 1996 and the book Cuentos para leer junto al mar (Tales to be Read by the Sea), which won a Mexican national literary award in 1997.[11] At the end of the 1990s, Moya suffered a lengthy illness, with prompted him and his wife to leave Mexico City for Cuernavaca.[8] The move caused him to reexamine his photographic archive, which remained in good condition, along with his graphic designer wife and some photographic experts.[3] The quality of the archive prompted Moya to organize and promote the archive, selling and exhibiting works, making his current living off of them.[8][14] He says he has been surprise at what sells,[3] with much of the sales in the United States, to collections such as the Wittliff Collections at the Texas State University.[8] Many of his better known photographs are republished today in books, magazines and newspapers.[2] Moya has his first public exhibition of his work in 2000 in Xalapa, Veracruz called Fuera de moda, in relation to the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Revolution. The collection traveled to Milan, Algiers, Dublin, New Delhi, Vienna and Havana. For the Havana exhibit he returned to Cuba.[2][10][12] Several books have been published dedicated to Moya’s work. The first book was Fuera de Moda:Homenaje:Obra Fotográfica1955-1968 (2002). In 2004, Foto Insurrecta was the first research into his archive, Alfonso Morales and Juan Manuel Arreocochea, followed by Rodrigo Moya: Una Vision Crítica De La Modernidad (2006) and Rodrigo Moya. El Telescopio interior (2014) .[10][11] Despite his return to his archive, he has not returned to taking pictures. He says that he thinks digital photography is admirable (if used frivolously), he has not been able to adapt to it.[5][8][14] Photographic styleAlthough Moya’s work has been favorably critiqued from an artistic viewpoint, he does not consider his work artistic, but rather documentary, with a passion for photography and social themes.[3][5][8] His influences include his parents,[1] the work of Alfonso Morales Carrillo, Walker Evans, Lewis Hine, Robert Frank, Eugene Smith, Dorothea Lange and the Farm Security Administration, as well as various American photography magazines such as American Photography, US Camera and Life.[2][11] One other important influence was Mexican photographer Nacho López,[11] with Moya’s work capturing everyday life in 1950s Mexico City comparable to that photographer.[9] Moya stated once that his interest in photograph was to “document, explore and struggle to transform reality, to induce consciousness with moving or brutal photographs, of everyday topics but emotional.”[12] He used his assignments as a photojournalist to take photographs of subjects he thought interesting or moving.[11] He never considered himself a war photographer, although he often took photos related to it along with those of social upheavals.[11] The archive contains images of numerous protests, revolutionaries, guerrilla fighters in Venezuela and Guatemala, and people in difficult situations. It also includes an execution by firing squad in Guatemala.[13][15] When in Cuba, he took a series of photographs of Ché Guevara.[11] His work in Mexico City mostly relates to daily life in the capital,[13] especially that of working class and poor people. He also took photographs of rural people and their lives in Mexico and Latin America,[11] farmhands, laborers, teachers, students and fishermen.[10][13] Although not very interested in the wealthy because of his politics, his father’s connections with the theater and cinema allowed Moya to also take portraits of a number of famous people including Carlos Fuentes, Juan de la Cabada, María Félix, Celia Cruz, Juan José Arreola, Juan Soriano, Rita Macedo, Fanny Cano, Meche Carreño, Josephine Baker, Silvia Pinal, David Alfaro Siqueiros, Gabriel García Márquez, Emilio El Indio Fernández, Dolores del Río and his sister, dancer Colombia Moya.[5][7][10] as well as many journalists, writers, actors and others who either never became famous or faded away.[6] RecognitionMoya’s work can be found in the permanent collections of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, the Nelson-Atkins Museum, the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, the Wittliff Collections and the Center for Creative Photography at the University of Arizona.[11] He has refused various prizes and honors.[9] Moya prefers books about his works rather than exhibitions, nor does he like awards.[14] Despite this, Moya has received the 2007 Medal of Photographic Merit from Mexico’s National System of Photographic Archives[11] and the 2014 Presea Cervantina from the Festival Internacional Cervantino,[14] which also sponsored a retrospective of his work the same year.[10] In 2009, he was the subject of a documentary film called Conciencia de la luz written and directed by Ana María Pérez and in 2014, TV UNAM premiered a series dedicated to him called Ojos bien abierto: El universe fotográfica de Rodrigo Moya.[9] Books
