Joana Biarnés - Fun moment between two bullfighters in the Plaza de Las Ventas, Madrid
Technique: Gelatin silver signed by the author on baryta paper with selenium bath.
Artist Biography: Joana Biarnés Florensa (Terrassa, 1935-2018), is considered the first woman photojournalist in Spain. Her images show a key stage of the twentieth century: the years of Francoism, with a sad and impoverished Spain, and the beginnings of democracy, its aspirations for freedom and how the illusion was recovered. Joana Biarnés's gaze was able to capture a changing society, leaving as well a testimony of catastrophes, sporting events and social events.Before her camera paraded, portrayed in a close and natural way, key figures of national art such as Dalí, Buñuel, Lola Flores, Rocío Durcal, Rocío Jurado, Marisol, Massiel, Joan Manuel Serrato, Raphael. And international artists such as Orson Welles, Jack Lemmon, Yul Brinner, Roman Polanski, Clint Eastwood, or the Beatles themselves also surrendered to her charisma, being the only one to photograph the band in the privacy of their hotel room during their Spanish tour.
