While in Txema SALVANS' first photo book the waiting characters are always prostitutes, it is the protagonists anglers who have infinite resilience. Working on the subject of 'waiting' required more complexity for subthemes as light, distance & THE moment

This series in 'Waiting Game' was taken along the Spanish Mediterranean coast. To achieve his goal, Txema SALVANS approached disguised as a surveyor - the only way to carry out this halfway project between sociological dissection & naturalistic narrative.

Perfect Day' by Txema SALVANS shows Spain's holidaymakers in unexpected corners of the post-industrial landscape.The pursuit of leisure time defies the built environment with a deeply human determination to find peace against all odds.

Edition of 500 copies. Spanish. Early work featuring the 'real story of a fake prostitute' Paula P.

The book combines the original story of the Nigerian writer Amos Tutuola with the reality of a country suffering from the heavy burden of African stereotypes. MAGNUM photographer Cristina DE MIDDEL creates a gray area between documentation and fiction.

The story is amusing, but only at first glance, because it is based on the fact that no one believes that Africa will ever reach the moon. Around fifty years later, Spanish photographer Cristina DE MIDDEL brought history back to light ...

Cristina DE MIDDEL questions street photography as well as the language and truthfulness of photography itself. In the shimmering streets of New York City, she playfully works with visual tropes to illuminate the surreal quality of space in the city.

Cristina DE MIDDEL's photo book Sharkification imagines the favelas of Brazil as a coral reef where the battle between the police and drug gangs can be seen as if sharks in pursuit of small fishes.

This small photo book with 'new' quotations - built on the foundation of Mao’s 'Little Red Book' - resulted from a first trip to China in 2012. DE MIDDEL reacted with her camera to whatever caught her attention, without any attempt to explain or analyze.

'Muchísmo' accompanied an exhibition of all of Cristina DE MIDDEL's works, although there was neither a curator nor an order and in this way questioned the art market and its rules. Also included is another series of landscape photographs from New Zealand
