Hernán Díaz is known as the genius behind the portraits of the great personalities of the 20th century, those who shaped the contemporary history of Colombia, especially in the fields of politics and culture: Carlos Pizarro, Jaime Garzón, Alejandro Obregón, Eduardo Ramírez Villamizar, Camilo Torres, Gabriel García Márquez. All photographed by the same lens. Díaz's fascination with capturing the essence of these characters mediated in the same way his approach to iconic places in the country and the anonymous glances he encountered along his way, making his travels perfect pretexts to hunt for the spontaneity of fleeting moments.
