Bob Schalkwijk

Rotterdam, the Netherlands, 1933
Lives and works in Mexico City.

Bob Schalkwijk : D.F. 59-71

In 1959 Bob Schalkwijk (Rotterdam, 1933) arrived in Mexico City, one that looked very different from ours yet very similar. Continuing the tradition of urban photographers, Bob skillfully portrayed how the Mexican capital was transforming to become a great modern capital. The architecture, the street vendors, the press, the traffic and the avenues, the new housing units and the ways of using the public space are, in Bob's work, a series of layers that make up the city that, despite having different rhythms and different ages coexist at all times. This is Mexico City, a series of geological and social layers built together anachronistically.

This exhibition includes images of Mexico City captured by Shalkwijk from 1959 to 1971. For these years, the University City and the Nonoalco-Tlatelolco housing unit already existed—still shining—; The 1968 Olympics had placed our country at the center of world attention, and at the same time old traditions such as religious pilgrimages or the Three Kings Day celebration in Alameda Central continued to be in force; the 1985 earthquake was still far in the future. We can also see the birth of new popular expressions within a large city such as polychrome balloons.

Mexico City is made of layers, it can be seen in the Mexica stones that support New Spain buildings, in the brand new cars next to Porfirian buildings or in modern murals on houses made of sheet metal; it is seen in its inhabitants, pilgrims, tourists, chilangos and in the very few photographers who have been able to decipher it, one of them is Bob Schalkwijk.

Aldo Solano Rojas. PhD. History of Art, UNAM, curator.

On the occasion of his 90th birthday, this year the Mexican Ministry of Culture will pay homage to him with a major individual exhibition at Centro de la Imagen.
