Alberto Schommer. Contemporaries

A National Photography Award recipient and one of our most emblematic photographers, Alberto Schommer made his mark in the visual history of Spain with his portraits of social and political leaders during the late Franco regime, Transition and Democracy. The exhibition offers an opportunity to recall the history behind some of these photographs. It all began when the ABC newspaper commissioned Schommer to make portraits of “beautiful girls”. The photographer decided to do something entirely different from what he had been assigned, changing the course of Spanish photography: he embarked on the creation of a complete iconographic gallery of personalities

Carlos Saura

Photographer. A life behind the camera. Curator: Chema Conesa Available: from January 2021 Like a Renaissance man, Carlos Saura has crafted—seamlessly—all of his artistic endeavours on a single plane. His creative world encompasses disciplines that, while concentrating on cinema as the unifying force to tell stories constructed of images and sounds, he continues working on the rest of them separately, with total fruition and dedication. He turned to the moving image from photography, from the analysis of forms with which this discipline came face-to-face with graphic modernity, searching for his own style and syntax, and since he began, he has

Cristina García Rodero

Curator: Oliva María Rubio From: 01.2018 In the works from Lalibela by Cristina García Rodero, we can observe the beauty and singularity of Medieval churches, the landscapes, and the rocks, as well as the richness of the ceremonies and rituals that are celebrated there. Her photographs introduce us to a symbolic journey through this holy land, this Biblical city located thousands of kilometers from Jerusalem, where scenes resound as if they came directly from the New Testament. Cristina García Rodero´s images transport us to the city of Lalibela, where time seems to have stopped in order to submerge us in

Chema Madoz

Curator: Oliva María Rubio From: 01.2018 Objects have been a foundational aspect of Chema Madoz´s work since he began in the nineties. But, if we take a close look at the work he has created over the years, we can also observe the significant role of nature. Chema Madoz operates with elements from nature in the same way that he works with objects, by searching for associations, displacements, metamorphoses, relationships, combinations, juxtapositions, and fortuitous encounters. These are evocative and poetic images in which the objects convert into elements of nature, and on the contrary, elements from nature become objects. Chema

Juana Biarnés

Curator: Chema Conesa From: 12.2017 Juana Biarnés initially began working in photography to help her father. At his studio where Ramón Masts used to develop also, the first female journalist in Spain was trained at a time in which she would have to confront certain prejudices. She worked her way into a man´s world to capture images that reveal proximity and sincerity, without unneeded artifice. Her persistent in capturing «the photo», the image that would stand out and explain everything, as her father always advised her, as noteworthy. She had the necessary tenacity for someone swimming against the current. At
