The photographer Gloria Oyarzabal has been nominated for the Photography Prize awarded by the Enaire Foundation, aimed at promoting photographic creation and encouraging the acquisition of works for the ENAIRE Collection. The three winning works will be included in that collection.
In the series La Blanche et la Noire (USUS FRUCTUS ABUSCUS) (2022), it is part of a postmodern discourse focused on the visibilization of racial otherness. With it, Oyarzabal problematizes the museum as a container and perpetuator of the colonial discourse, rereading the plundering of African cultures that has fed the spaces that make up the museum narrative in Europe from the 18th century to the present day.
From the gallery team we wish Gloria Oyarzabal the best of luck!
