Fontcuberta, Joan
Joan Fontcuberta is a contemporary Spanish photographer of Catalan origin. A lover of fake and staged photographs, who uses humor to denounce the manipulation hidden under the images. " Images are our memory, our imagination, our unconscious " In his pictures, Joan Fontcuberta stages images that mimic scientific approaches, journalistic reports, religious narratives, museum speeches ... except that everything is fake.
