Occulta verita es un álbum de gran formato y encuadernación en cartoné que incluye fotografías de Juan Moro, uno de los más destacados fotógrafos y artistas plásticos del panorama contemporáneo, acompañados por textos y poemas de reconocidos escritores, como Gabriel Sopeña, Jose Luis Melero, Anton Castro, Olga Bernad, Angel Guinda, Pilar Clau, Luis Salvago, Angelica Morales, Cuti Vericad o Miguel Angel Ortiz Albero, entre otros. En palabras de Desiree Orus en el prologo del libro: En este trabajo del autor, el desnudo es la constante que plano a plano, pliegue a pliegue de la piel, va dibujando una representacion proferida por medio de un juego de luces y sombras, enmascaradas por una dorada claridad donde se desenvuelven los personajes, una atmosfera de texturas pictoricas que se mimetizan con un suelo o una tela que acompaña la torsion del cuerpo. Figuras en ocasiones estaticas, de cuerpos poderosos, de mirada desafiante, de rostro ausente o cegados ojos. Imagenes donde se palpa una sensualidad inconsciente que cristaliza en el placer de lo desconocido o aquello que permanece restringido y solo es posible percibir a traves de la vision del sueño o la pesadilla dantesca, donde nada es lo que parece y todo es posible. La desnudez es el conclave de la fotografia. Una anatomia siempre hermosa, con una cuidada evaluacion de volumenes en cada composicion.

No sé si recuerdo o imagino. Soy media generación más joven que los protagonistas de estas fotos estupendas de nuestro amigo Florencio y quizás esa ?media generación? ?se cuantifique como se cuantifique? fuera muy importante en terminos sociales y culturales. Vamos, que me perdi algunas cosas fascinantes de aquellos años, aunque vivi otras, que duda cabe? Pues aquel Florencio de entonces nos regala ahora unas fotografias de aquellos tiempos. Rostros, imagenes, miradas (que miradas), esquinas y parques en segundo plano, añoranzas? que hablan sin hablar de aquellos nombres magicos (Bar Flor de Texas, calle Elfo, calle del Pileo?) cuando el mundo era tambien magico o cuando nosotros lo veiamos y lo mirabamos asi. Las fotos de Floro captan las miradas de aquellos jovenes soñadores e idealistas, miradas enamoradas o vergonzosas, miradas audaces y casi provocativas o vergonzosas, miradas ilusionadas o veladas ya por algun desengaño.

A seminal experience for American photographer Malerie Marder (born 1971) was a family friend's request for Marder to photograph her with her lover, naked and in the anonymous setting of a motel room. This set the tone for Marder's work for the next decade. Her photographs of nudes are composed simply, much like portrait painting, her subjects sitting plainly near the center of the frame, often set against the bleak anonymity of motel rooms, their impassive gazes almost daring the viewer to interpret their bodies. "Marder has explored the psychosexual undertow of her own intimate relationships," Siobhan McDevitt wrote in Artforum, "frequently shooting herself along with family and friends in close quarters (including pay-by-the-hour motels) and, usually, undressed. She flirts with prurience, with ideas of privacy and surveillance, eroticism and pornography, but seems more satisfied when approaching the complications of love or being in love." Beautifully illustrated, Carnal Knowledge contains 77 color reproductions of these photographs, as well as new texts from James Ellroy and Neville Wakefield, a preface by Gregory Crewdson, short stories inspired by Marder's work by A. M. Homes, James Frey and Bruce Wagner, and a Q & A for Marder devised by Philip-Lorca diCorcia. It is the first volume to collect these works and to bring Marder's work to a wider audience.

* A memoir created in pictures: over two hundred photos linked and underpinned not in chronological order but shown in a cinematographic sequence and rhythm. As well as the photos, the author includes his memories and the experiences he gained when he took them, without boasting or telling unlikely stories. A book open in all directions, unprejudiced and with no other aim than to capture life itself. Antoni Bernad began to work as a graphic artist when he was fifteen but he soon realised that his world was made of images and without knowing how to swim, he launched himself into the deep end hoping that his passion would serve as a lifebelt. This passion and a stubborn will have led him to be now recognised as one of the great photographers. People such as Dali, Paloma Picasso, Horst, David Hockney, Tapies, Catala Roca, Manolo Blahnik, Joan Miro, Merce Rodoreda or Ryszard Kapuscinski have posed in front of his camera. In his portraits he always strives to reach the person s soul and reflect their most intimate emotions. Now that the abuse of imagery has become a burden, this book allows us to judge Bernad s work with perspective and to underline its worth: authenticity, without sliding into sensationalist artifice or fleeting fashions. It is the work, in short, of a contempora

I used to lash out with my fists, now I am making an impact with my photos. Stacii SamidinRaw honesty, radicalism and unfamiliar territories are the foundation of the work of photographer Stacii Samidin (b. 1987). At the core is the essence of seeing, hearing and accepting a human being without prejudice and judgement. Documenting the lives of minorities, the oppressed and those with unorthodox lifestyles all around the world in his lifes work Societies, he challenges our perception and raises the voices of the unheard or silenced through photography.With a text contribution by Tracy Metz and an introduction by Koos Breukel and Hedy van Erp.Publication accompanying the exhibition at Galerie Weisbard, Rotterdam, from 26 April until 17 May 2025.
