Description: First published 1971, the book Journey through the Fantastic, was a reference in Brazilian photography and considered as one of the pioneering Latin American titles, in what is now characterized as a photobookʺ. Half a century later the pioneer photographer's book of photographs, is augumented with a supplementary notebook with texts that contextualize the trajectory of Kossoy. A trained architect, he initially devoted himself to portraiture to, in the 1970s, develop a personal pictorial language. Kossoy was also interested in the theoretical aspect of photography, going on to study history through this art and its impact on daily life. In the book, Kossoy reveals his influences  particularly Alfred Hitchcockœs suspense cinema and the magical realism of Gabriel García Márquez's literature. Second volume is a collection of unpublished texts about the photobooks.
