Of course, there will always be those who only look at the technique, who ask for the ‘how,’ while others of a more curious nature will ask ‘why.’ Personally, I’ve always preferred inspiration to information…”

MONDO GALERIA presents a unique exhibition of one of the greatest photography geniuses of all time: MAN RAY (United States, 1890). Pierre-Yves Butzbach (France, 1955) and Horacio Basilicus (Italy, 1963), this unpublished exhibition presents a journey through the multifaceted work of Emmanuel Radnitsky, visionary of photography as art, and a member of the Dada movement in Paris and then after the Surrealists, a movement in which the juxtaposition of emblematic works in different media helps to create a global image of the poetic universe of its author.

On May 9th, with the moratorium of the exhibition and to complete the multifaceted work of MAN RAY, we will be showing the films “Retour á la raison” (1923), Emak Bakia (1926), “Star of the Sea” (L’Etoile de mer, 1928), presented by Pierre-Yves Butzbach.

This projection is possible thanks to the Institut français de España en Madrid

“Raw Power" + Estudio Mariscal


Curator Nathalie Bèreau

Photography Exhibition + Design Installation / 5th April – 1st May 2014 – During the Festival Juagada a 3 Bandas


“A few days before meeting Iggy Pop, his friend Marc Bolan had died. When we arrived at the Hotel Plaza in Copenhagen, Iggy was sitting absorbed in a newspaper reading about Marc’s car accident. He looked up and said, “James Osterberg,” his real name… I was introduced to him immediately, and hearing my name Iggy looked at me with surprise and said: ‘Orson Welles?’ Although I was intimidated, I said “yeah.” Throughout the interview Iggy spoke of golf, which was a surprise, as he neither seemed nor acted like the wild rebel that we had hoped to interview.”

MONDO GALERIA, in collaboration with Nathalie Béreau and 6Mandel, presents for the first time in Spain an exhibition of photographs by Mats  Bäcker, the Swedish photographer recognized for his work in the Rock music scene of the 70s and 80s. Through his lens he has captured artists such as the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Iggy Pop, Grace jones, and Joe Strummer, among others.

This exhibition is curated by Nathaelie Béreau, and is part of the new edition of JUGADA A 3 BANDAS, a festival that every year brings Galleries + Curators + Artists together.

 

Mats Bäcker (föd i Hagfors, 1958) is considered the best scene photographer in Scandinavia.

The images he created in the 70s and 80s portray the new wave of ideals and ways of living associated with rock music. His photos were influenced by his proximity to photography as a means of reportage. He was looking for a casual and sensual attitude, through black and white images. This is what Mats Bäcker wanted to demonstrate with iconic figures such as Iggy Pop and David Bowie.

Raw Power is a story about a unique moment in the history, focusing on Rock between 1977 and 1986.

Renato D'Agostin
“Etna“

Photography Exhibition / 4th – 28th March 2014


The Exhibition

“Etna” is a visual poem that goes beyond the limits of photography, opening our perception towards a rhythmic counterpoint in which music demands to be seen.

MONDO GALERIA presents “Etna,” the homonymous exhibition to celebrate the fifth book of the author of the ‘Venetian Photographer,’ Renato D’Agostin. It is an honor to present this book, exquisitely designed by Tankboys (Venezia) and co-produced by MONDO GALERIA Madrid along with MC2 Gallery of Milano and Nomadic Editions. This third publication of Renato D’Agostin proves his quality as an author of projects focused on the poetry of movement, light, dreams and the majesty of photography.

Esta exposición es posible gracias al apoyo y colaboración de
