Within the framework of celebrating  the 28th anniversary of our University, 15 Chilean photographers accepted the challenge of portraying our university activities, which has also allowed shaping the First Photographic Collection Universidad de los Andes. In this way, these artists generated, under the topic "Campus UANDES our common home", a gaze that gathers and expresses the identity of this University, exemplified here with a selection of 28 images.
