Promoted by Fundación Contemporánea and organized by La Fábrica, PHotoESPAÑA makes Madrid and Spain become a meeting point for the world of Photography every year. A festival designed and made in Spain, which has become an international reference thanks to the work and involvement of specialists and agents from the artistic, cultural, and political fields, the collaboration of institutions, and the participation of the public.

The XVII edition, in 2014, was dedicated entirely to the evolution of Spanish photography from the 20th century to the present, highlighting the work of young creators who are contributing new ways of looking at photography and who enjoy an important international echo. .
