It is with great sadness that we inform you of the death of German Lorca (May 28, 1922 – May 8, 2021). Exceptional man, excellent artist and photographer. His death, at the age of 98, coincides with the inauguration today at the Moma in NY of the exhibition Fotoclubismo. Brazilian Modernist Photography, 1946-1964 , where some of his most famous photographs are shown. We’ll miss you very much. Big hug for your whole family.

This Saturday, May 8th, the exhibition Fotoclubismo: Brazilian Modernist Photography, 1946-1964, will be inaugurated at MoMA in New York. A spectacular retrospective of this artistic movement, curated by Sarah H. Meister and Dana Ostrander, where you could find photographs by Marcel Giró, Palmira Puig, German Lorca and Rubens Teixeira Scavone among others.

MoMA will reopen its doors with this exhibition that excites us so much and make us very proud of it as we had have the opportunity to collaborate deeply on it.

Therefore we’ve decided to extend the closing of our exhibition at the gallery, Fotoclubismos: Barcelona – São Paulo. 1932-1964, until Saturday, May 15th, so you will be able to come to visit it two weeks more.
