Exégesis
DÍAZ BOURGEOT, Caracas, Venezuela, 1964.
In the middle of the economic crisis, from the 40s, the United States gave rise to the Superheroes comics. They represented the power of the United States of America.
The cartoonists who created the first Superheroes, Jerry Siegel, Joe Shuster, representing a villainous man, the American power that would dominate the world.
There was no success.
But Joe Shuter, also a creative cartoonist, son of a Ukrainian immigrant, changed the version, this time the character would go to the side of “the good guys” with Superman, a hero who would save humanity from the “bad guys”.
So many heroes created by the United States….Díaz Bourgeot can give you an idea… reflection photography
