Hahn, Betty (editor) Contemporary Spanish Photography
University of New Mexico Press 1987 0826309828 / 9780826309822 Hardcover with dust jacket used
dust jacket: "Opportunities for viewers in this country to see Spanish photography, either historical or contemporary, have been rare. As this book shows, however, Spain has a lively and active group of photographers working today. Joan Fontcubert's essay discusses the historical traditions that have influenced them as well as the major figures in Spanish photography form its invention to the present day. A trip to Spain in 1983 provided Betty Hahn the chance to interview and visit the studios of numerous artists and photographers, and although she could have included many more photographers in this collection, she has limited it to fourteen to be able to give each of them space for a representative portfolio. From the straightforward photojournalistic approach to the highly manipulated collages, lithographs, and photographs on canvas, these photographs offer a provocative and sophisticated sampling of the wide-ranging trends in Spanish photography today."
