Tuca Vieira (*1974), a young Brazilian photographer, captures amazing shots of his native city Sao Paulo (but not only).

After having studied + graduated in languages and literature, he worked at Museu da Imagem e do Som and n-imagens photo agency. Since 1991 he is professional photographer, among others as photographic reporter for Folha de S. Paulo. Vieira has studied with photographers Cláudio Feijó, Eduardo Castanho, Nair Benedicto and Eder Chiodetto.

Since 2002, Vieira realizes his own projects about cityscape, architecture and urbanism in São Paulo and has received several awards. He has already participated in numerous exhibitions, in Brazil/South America, North America and Europe (e.g. his works were shown in “Multiple City”, Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich last year).

Vieira’s photos show impressive views of the city, and reveal its structure – in often amazingly aesthetic pictures.

I noticed his work first in the context of an exhibition project by the Heidelberg Kunstverein: Islands and Ghettos, where the photo below – Paraisópolis – was shown on a magazine cover as an example of urbanization developments in South America (Ghettoisation, fragmentation into isolated urban communities, etc.).

I will report more about Tuca Vieira and his work soon.
