Photobooks The art of collecting photographs
Metus
Lluc Queralt
Perhaps the most special and personal book by Lluc Queralt that we have edited so far. A collection of photographs that focus on the female nude go much further. Collection of images of transcendent and enigmatic expression.
He tried to explain to me what had been happening for so many years, he could not express it in words and illustrated it with images. The social pressure, the drawing with a simple line pressuring the body and soul. Hoping that one day that stripe would go from black to white.

NY It’s too much
Jordi Vilella | Violetta Curry | Carles Batlle
This project closes Jordi Vilella’s tetralogy on street and city photography. A photobook that this time has been elaborated with very good complicities: Violetta Curry (singer) and Carles Batlle (novelist and playwright) add in an inspiring way to a collection of photographs of the most international city.
Batlle, from each place photographed, proposes an enigma, to discover a character. The voice and repertoire of Violetta Curry accompanies the audiovisual DVD of 200 photographs, of which the 36 that have been edited have been chosen.

Landscapes
Lluc Queralt
After seeing and photographing many places, Lluc Queralt has made a selection. The geometry, composition and simplicity of the photographs in the collection are the common point. Spaces and landscapes of infinite places have something in common, the photographer’s gaze: analytical, attentive and intimate.
Humans often think that the world is built from our self, from our gaze. The human presence in the landscape can be a consciousness or an incidence. It seems like a way to find our place in the convulsive and dark reality that accompanies us, but the landscape has existed before any of us have observed it.
