1910年出生于法国尚蒂伊的马塞尔·高特罗(Marcel Gautherot),其身份远不止于一名摄影师;他是一位变革的编年史作家,一位用镜头书写诗篇的视觉诗人,半个多世纪以来,他始终致力于记录巴西不断演变的灵魂。尽管最初被建筑学所吸引,但高特罗最终通过镜头找到了真正的天职,成为了捕捉这个国家景观、人民,以及最重要的是——记录巴西利亚雄心勃勃的建设进程的最重要摄影师之一。他的旅程始于巴黎,在那里,对包豪斯设计原则的初步兴趣曾引导他走向一段学徒生涯,但他最终放弃了这一路径,转而在1936年人类博物馆(Musée de l'Homme)整理影像的过程中,被视觉叙事的强大力量所俘获。这段早期的经历成为了他艺术生命的转折点,塑造了他敏锐的构图眼光,以及捕捉人与建筑环境之间生命本质的坚定承诺。
