Oriol Maspons - La Mancha
Technique: Gelatine silver on baryta paper
Artist Biography: Oriol Maspons (Barcelona 1928 -2013) was part of a group of photographers, (sometimes referred to as The Barcelona School), that produced important documentary work of Catalonia and Spain, especially in the 1950s and 1960s. He met Cartier-Bresson, Brassai and Robert Doisneau during his stay in Paris from 1955 to 1956, which visibly influenced his own work. In Barcelona he set up a studio with Julio Ubiña and devoted himself to editorial and advertising photography. Portraiture became one of his favorite activities, leading to great visual testimonies of the cultural and social life of the region. In 1998 he received the Gold Medal of the City of Barcelona, along with Colita and Leopoldo Pomés. He published several books, among them: Els Barcelonins (with Colita and X. Miserachs), 1988, Personajes de Compañía, 1995, El Instante Perdido, 1996, La Casa del Perdiz Rojo, text: Miguel Delibes, Toreo de Salón, text: Camilo José Cela.
