✍️ Colita: “A la mujer ‘ideal’ tendrían que quemarla viva como a Juana de Arco”. Vanessa Graell. El Mundo. Saturday, 20th of November 2021.

We share this great article published in La Vanguardia about the new edition of the book Antifémina by Colita, represented by our gallery, and Mª Aurèlia Campany.

Antifémina was the first openly feminist graphic book in the history of post-Francoism, with texts by Maria Aurèlia Capmany and photographs by Colita, and it was a book that was practically impossible to find. Published in 1977, it was kidnapped by the Francoist structures, still dominant in the middle of the democratic transition.

The Barcelona City Council and  Editorial Terranova, with the collaboration of the Colita Photography Archive, recover the publication of Antifémina, 43 years after its original publication.

We are pleased to share that Monjas tendiendo ropa, 1964 by Colita and Flamenco, 1988 by Ouka Leele have been selected by JP Morgan to be part of their Paris Photo 2021 Curators’ Highlights.

On occasion of the 10th anniversary of  the JPMorgan Chase Art Collection in  Paris Photo, their curatorial team has selected 20 works that reflect unique perspectives within photography.
Through this curation they offer a self-guided tour through the fair that presents a combination of emerging and more established artists to offer a new perspective on the photographic practices of the moment.

Gonzalo Elvira, artist represented by RocioSantaCruz, participates in the exhibition Memoria del Porvenir in the Museum of Contemporary Art of Castilla y Léon (MUSAC). The exhibition will be open to the public until the 1st of May 2022.

Lo imborrable, taking its title from the book by Juan José Saer, is a series of 10 ink drawings on paper which reproduce the covers of books that were banned in Argentina during the dictatorship from 1976 to 1983. Through this series, Elvira highlights the violence of the dictatorship and its psychological repercussions for generations of Argentinians. The act of drawing with ink is a significant one; in a poetic gesture, the artist seems to want to record in his memory the content and the titles of the books that constituted freedoms stolen by the authoritarian regime.
