Photo Art Books

Photo books and identity: windows to cultural and social diversity.

Collective exhibition dedicated to photobooks, organized by Photo Art Books and curated by Mireia Alises, which explores the complex notion of identity from a variety of angles and contexts. Through a careful selection of the work of twenty-one photographers through their books, we immerse ourselves in the intimate and diverse territories of human identity, exploring themes of intimacy and self-awareness, territorial identity, gender, belonging to a collective, and ethnicity.

Each photobook is presented as a window into a unique world of experiences and perspectives, reminding us that identity is a continuous journey of self-discovery and exploration. With all of them, we invite attendees to reflect on the changing and multifaceted nature of individual and collective identity.

These photobooks capture the connection between the individual and their environment, challenge social norms, and celebrate the diversity and strength of group identity. Through intimate portraits, personal narratives, and family stories, this exhibition offers a fascinating exploration of the diversity and complexity of identity in contemporary society.
