He photographed Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera, Esther Williams, Janice Logan, David Alfaro Siqueiros, the first castings of María Félix, Luis Buñuel, Marc Chagall, Louis Armstrong, Álvaro Mutis, Pablo Neruda, Walt Disney, Enrique Santos Montejo “Calibán”, Lucho Bermúdez, Agustin Lara, Gabriel Figueroa, Esther Fernandez, Jose Clemente Orozco, Mario Moreno Cantinflas, and Dolores del Rio. He was influenced by Mexican cinema, geography, architecture, history, muralism, and history as well as the artists Gustave Dore, George Grozt, Nadar and Guadalupe Posada. He was a photographer for Asi, Life, Reader's Digest, Harper Magazine, Look and Norte. He had a high profile and intense dispute with David Alfaro Siqueiros. Matiz died in Bogota on October 24, 1998. The Foundation Leo Matiz was established to preserve his legacy. Listings wanted. Please contact mary@artbrokerage.com, Senior Photography Specialist.
