El antes y el despu\u00e9s, es lo que siempre le ha intrigado a \u00e9sta fot\u00f3grafa, el significado del antes y del despu\u00e9s y a veces se pregunta si la fotograf\u00eda se acerca realmente a lo que llamamos el ahora. <\/p>\n

La exposici\u00f3n presenta a trav\u00e9s de una selecci\u00f3n de 22 fotograf\u00edas un recorrido art\u00edstico realizado a lo largo de 20 a\u00f1os de actividad.<\/p>\n

El uso exclusivo del blanco y negro est\u00e1 en el centro de la b\u00fasqueda art\u00edstica que impregna de vida y misterio los personajes representados. Personas normales y corrientes, amigos, familia y personajes ilustres viven en un mundo suspendido en el tiempo en el que miradas y almas son est\u00e9ticamente interpretadas e indagadas por un uso preciso y riguroso de la fotograf\u00eda. Una mirada fotogr\u00e1fica profunda, atenta, que encuentra su fundamento en la historia cl\u00e1sica del arte del retrato revisionada y reinterpretada en una dimensi\u00f3n contempor\u00e1nea en la que el juego de los claros oscuros y negros toman vida, forma y movimiento. <\/p>\n

The before and after. I have always been curious about the meaning of the before and after and I wonder if photography is really approaching what we refer to as the now.<\/p>\n

The exhibition presents, through a selection of 22 photographs, an artistic journey achieved in a career spanning twenty years.
\nThe exclusive use of black and white is at the centre of the artistic research that permeates this photography with life and mystery.
\nOrdinary people, friends and family as well as celebrities, live in a world suspended in time, where looks and souls are aesthetically interpreted and investigated by an accurate and rigorous use of photography.
\nA thoughtful and penetrating photographic gaze, which has as its basis the classical history of portraiture, revised and reinterpreted in a contemporary dimension, with a play of chiaroscuro and blacks tones, is what gives life, form and movement to this art.<\/p>\n
