New Generation of Photographers

"A New Generation of Photographers" has three principal aims. Firstly, it is a statement about a new generation, bringing together important works by 16 emerging photographers. Almost all the participants, from various countries, were born in the 1970s and 1980s. The selection focuses on photographers working in Catalonia and Spain. Secondly, this exhibition offers a perspective on new modes of photographic expression in the twenty-first century. The most noteworthy characteristic of the moment has been the rise of group photography, where stories unfold in ways that are narrative, documentary, conceptual and poetical. Finally, in terms of subject matter, the photographic series presented here contemplate and consider some of the fundamental and defining questions of our time. All told, they constitute a reflection on the human condition in these nascent years of the new millennium.
