Endre “Bandi” Binder was born in Hungary in 1917 and passed away in Argentina in 2006. He lived and worked alternately in Argentina, Uruguay, and the United States. He became an excellent self-taught photographer, specializing in portraiture and later nudes, in tune with the feminist liberation movement that began in the 1960s.

The pop and psychedelic culture of the years he spent in San Francisco and Los Angeles left a mark on his style. In addition to taking photographs, he spent many hours in the darkroom experimenting with unconventional photographic techniques. This is why many of his vintage photographs are unique prints. For fifty seasons – between the 1940s and 1990s – he dedicated himself to photographing traditional Argentine and Uruguayan families who spent their summers in Punta del Este.
