O fotógrafo dos escritores perde seu acervo

Sylvia Colombo

Certa vez, quando foi fotografar o escritor argentino Adolfo Bioy Casares, ao lado da cama do autor, em sua casa, este lhe disse: “A eternidade é uma das raras virtudes da literatura”. A frase ficou na cabeça de Daniel Mordzinski, 53, fotógrafo argentino radicado na França que há trinta anos se dedica a retratar escritores em situações fora do convencional. Em suas imagens, vemos o israelense Amos Oz parado no meio do deserto, o argentino Andrés Neuman deitado numa mesa de bilhar, seu compatriota Ricardo Piglia posando entre cabides, Zélia Gattai com uma coleção de imagens religiosas, o mexicano Juan Villoro cabeceando uma bola de futebol, Federico Andahazi saindo de um táxi e inúmeras cenas inusitadas.

Mordzinski começou a fazer suas chamadas “fotinskis” em 1978. Tinha apenas 18 anos, sonhava ser escritor e estava buscando oportunidades. Até que Ricardo Wullicher, produtor e amigo, o chamou para acompanhar a filmagem de “Borges para Millones”. Mordzinski, então, teve a oportunidade de fazer a foto acima, na qual temos o célebre gênio argentino mirando o horizonte. A partir daí, Mordzinski começou a se dedicar a fotografar escritores, tendo como objetivo, um dia, reunir um grande atlas da literatura latino-americana e espanhola.

Lendo e, principalmente, escutando os autores, passou a inspirar-se. Foi assim com o peruano Mario Vargas Llosa. O autor de “Lituma nos Andes” contou em uma palestra que sempre desobedecia sua mãe quando ela lhe pedia que apagasse a luz para dormir. Ele, então, acendia uma vela e seguia lendo. Mordzinski não teve dúvidas, naquele mesmo dia comprou uma vela e apareceu no quarto de Vargas Llosa, no hotel, para reconstruir a cena de sua infância. O resultado é a foto acima.

Há escritores no banheiro, outros em suas camas (Gabriel García Márquez), sem roupa (Wendy Guerra), quase irreconhecíveis no canto de alguns quadros, ou retratos escancarados, meditativos, poses naturais e armadas. Nas últimas três décadas, Mordzinski viajou por vários países, presenciou inúmeros festivais, principalmente os Hay de Cartagena e Xalapa, e tirou inúmeras fotos.

Após ser correspondente de guerra no Oriente Médio nos anos 80, Mordzinski se instalou em Paris, onde é correspondente do jornal espanhol “El País”. Ali, num escritório do jornal “Le Monde”, guardava os negativos de toda uma vida de trabalho. Pois o diário francês acaba de destruir, por acidente, seu acervo de mais de 50 mil negativos. Ao desalojar a sala para destiná-la para outro fim, o trabalho do fotógrafo foi quase todo para o lixo.

Desesperado, Mordzinski escreveu para outros jornais e em seu site, pedindo uma retratação, que veio após algumas semanas. O fato ganhou ampla repercussão em cadernos de cultura de todo o mundo. E Mordzinski foi defendido por toda a comunidade de escritores, muitos jornalistas e articulistas. O que se perdeu para sempre, porém, foram suas fotos. Por sorte muito havia sido publicado, e pode ser visto também em seu site www.danielmordzinski.com, mas o sonho do atlas das letras ibero-americanas ficou mais complicado de cumprir.

  30. I uncertainty this can be a spot due to, yet… I have a problem with all of our existing copyright laws, u feel that just how all of our existing system of government employs lobbying will be the reason for it. Our laws do not both equally safeguard everybody, they will just secure the actual pursuits of the abundant couple of. Will there be definitely not some way to improve how things are? Precisely what percent of the population can be beat up previous to real modify may be pressed to occur? Our own rules happen to be contorted in addition to turned to profit a new loaded few. Example: I’m a land inspector. My children worked as a chef to do surveys for individuals regarding 40 years. We are always put money really competitively often depreciating to acquire work opportunities wanting that people would make our own gains insurance agencies the particular records so that we may have the work with long term studies in addition to having the capacity to do these very easily by only modernizing what exactly facts all of us by now acquired in data. Now this identical system of lawmaking that may be safeguarding the actual RIAA is allowing it market while others that have been accumulating replicates of the surveys for you to disperse these phones individuals acknowledging affidavits for closings utilizing our help their own profit and also not including us from making money for our own sweating labor as well as do the job. What exactly affects myself many about this is, one day, we will see a lawsuit on the customer survey most of us does ages before, that was utilized for some sort of later closing next to all of our will certainly as well as the process of law may area next to us all for just a job we all did not even get paid to get. We now have created many people within government requesting assistance in getting just to acquire passive web template responds or any response in any way. Romans possessed this much better 2100 years back. Good we are in any democracy, but I actually worry it is not necessarily even a republic. All of us political election to get a small grouping of Republicans or perhaps Democrats with govt, only to have got the legal guidelines published in addition to cool to learn any rich minority, by lobbyists financed by simply and representing a prosperous several. This particular very same authorities all of us selected to get applies a decreased priority around the purposes in the majority, inside notion that this rich not many are much more smart as well as considerably more suitable compared to majority. I’m scared our own administration is now more of the Aristocracy.
