About
The exhibition offers an approach to this historical moment from the perspective of photography, addressing radically different areas and perspectives.
In the exhibition, which is presented at the Les Rencontres d'Arles festival this summer, you can see vintage photographs of Alberto García-Alix , Ouka Leele , Pablo Pérez-Mínguez and Miguel Trillo . The photographs come from the archives of the photographers and the Adolfo Autric collection .
After several decades of dictatorship and ostracism, the Spanish transition saw a new generation fascinated by modernity and the idea of the new, which would crystallize in creators from different fields such as music, fashion, film, painting or photography .
They all lived together, crossed and, in their own way, each of them was a chronicler of La Movida . The exceptional nature of the photography of that period is precisely their individual contribution, reflecting the diversity of the worlds in which they turned and of their rich personalities from the photographic point of view and that result in a polyhedral look on that moment.
