Edward Quinns debut as a professional photojournalist was at an equestrian show jumping competition in Nice, France. This initiation established two constants of the Irish photographers (19201997) work: the Cote dAzur as a setting and animals as a subject. The French Riviera of the 1950s and 60s was a veritable El Dorado. Quinns wife, Gret, once said of this golden age, In the fifties, looking around on the Riviera, you thought everyone was beautiful and happy. Edward Quinn captured the shining stars of the dayeveryone from Grace Kelly to Salvador Dalion film, preserving the magic of those boom years for future generations. Equipped with his Leica and an excellent eye, Edward Quinn brought artistry to celebrity photos, as People Magazine once wrote about him. Celebrities, both now and in the glamorous 1950s and 60s, tend to look shy, stilted, and intent on keeping their guard up when photographed. But not with Quinn. How did he get such impressively authentic portraits of his subjects? His discreet and gentle manner certainly helped, as did his trick of shooting stars with their pets. Celebrity Pets proves this tactic was a huge success. In the presence of their beloved pets, the stars are incredibly approachable and natural, whether it is Picasso romping with his dogs Kabul and Lump, or writer Somerset Maugham on all fours playing with his Pekingese Chin. We see Prince Rainer using a tiger as an icebreaker with Grace Kelly, and mixed-breed dog Guapa where every man dreamed of being: in bed with Brigitte Bardot.

In 1975, the young Parisian photographer Brigitte Lacombe met Donald Sutherland and Dustin Hoffman at the Cannes Film Festival; these new acquaintances would go on to open doors for her. That same year she was hired as a photographer for the filming of Fellini's Casanova. Since then, Lacombe's famous images have reflected a who's who of Hollywood cinema. This collection spans a masterfully choreographed array of photographs Lacombe took-all the way from the sets of 1970s cinema classics to film milestones of the new millennium, including Alan J. Pakula's All the President's Men, Martin Scorsese's Gangs of New York, and Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds. Conveying a certain intimacy without unmasking any mystery, Lacombe's images capture classical beauty in a way that is fresh and exciting.

Catálogo de la exposición que se celebrará en la Sala Fundación Mapfre Casa Garriga i Nogués, del 26 de enero al 30 de abril de 2017 Peter Hujar: Speed of Life es la primera exploración sistemática de la obra de este importante fotografo de la postguerra (1934-1987). Se compone de 160 piezas entre: papeles personales, hojas de contactos o entrevistas con amigos y socios en diferentes periodos de su vida. La exposicion se configura como una retrospectiva historica y como una propuesta monografica en su evolucion: sus comienzos en la decada de 1950 como ayudante en un estudio publicitario; la formacion de su estetica a traves de la fotografia de moda y el retrato en los ultimos años sesenta; su cronica, tan profundamente personal, de los artistas y las subculturas en la Nueva York de los setentas; y el tramo final de la decada de 1980, cuando el SIDA y la efervescencia creadora transforman el East Village (Manhattan).

Lobismuller reconstruye desde una perspectiva del todo singular la historia del asesino en serie más enigmático y sanguinario de la historia española: Manuel Blanco Romasanta. Durante el juicio que se celebro en 1853 Manuel admitio haber cometido nueve asesinatos (de los diecisiete atribuidos), sin embargo, siempre se declaro inocente, argumentando que era victima de una asombrosa maldicion que lo hacia convertirse en lobo y le arrastraba a perpetrar sus abominables crimenes.Laia Abril vuelve a exhibirse en este magnifico foto libro de la mano del diseñador Ramon Pez.

Esta exposicion ofrece una perspectiva sobre los modos de expresion fotografica que se vienen desarrollando en el siglo XXI.

Since the beginning of his career, Swiss-Italian photographer Christian Tagliavini has been fascinated by mise-en-scene photography and Renaissance portraiture. Referencing the painting style of the Old Masters, his carefully-staged photo portraits exude the dignity and composure of 15th and 16th-century courtly culture, meticulously replicating their dimensions, framing, and chiaroscuro effects. After his breakthrough with the series 1503, Tagliavini returns to the art historical theme with his new series, 1406, published for the first time in this book. In his process, however, Tagliavini takes a step further back from the Renaissance artist ideal, presenting himself instead as a "photographic craftsman" who designs each of his costumes and props by hand with a small team. Particularly elaborate was the work on his most extensive series to-date, Voyages Extraordinaires, for which Tagliavini constructed entire scenes inspired by Jules Vernes' novels. All of Tagliavini's series are meticulously composed mise-en-scenes with a stunning, fantastical effect partly reminiscent of his early photographic idols Jeff Wall, Erwin Olaf, and Gregory Crewdson. This Tagliavini monograph includes all of his photographic series to-date as well as the images documenting the evolution of his projects he spent months working on. The result is both a comprehensive Tagliavini catalogue and a fascinating insight into the working process of one of the most original and talented photographers working today.

El libro Dreamers de Shirin Neshat, concebido a modo de tríptico e impreso en duotono (negro y plata), está basado en la trilogía de vídeo instalaciones en blanco y negro que incluye Illusions & Mirrors (2013), con la participación de Natalie Portman, Roja (2016) y Sarah (2016). Tres historias que exploran sueños de mujeres a través de narrativas psicológicas y emocionales, permaneciendo en el límite entre lo onírico y lo real, la locura y la cordura, el consciente y el subconsciente. Como explica la propia artista, me obsesiona el poder de los sueños, y cómo solo en el estado del sueño se borran las barreras entre la realidad y la ficción; es ahí donde los seres humanos somos verdaderamente libres y puros.
