Still Life with Egg and Twine

Horacio Coppola was an Argentine photographer and filmmaker whose practice spanned nearly a century, from the 1930s through the early 2000s. A pioneering figure in Latin American modernist photography, he worked with geometric abstraction and documentary portraiture, establishing a formal language that bridged European avant-garde principles with Argentine visual culture. His photographs and experimental films engaged with architecture, landscape, and urban form as subjects of formal investigation. Active across multiple decades, Coppola maintained a consistent commitment to the photographic image as a tool for structural and conceptual inquiry.
