Angel Albarrán and Anna Cabrera: Photographic Syntax’
27 January – 10 March 2024

“Albarrán Cabrera’s works on view show the artists’ approach that photographs are not only images, but also physical objects. They have found new ways to explain their concepts and ideas by inventing new printing techniques and by using existing processes in different ways. Included are their famed colour works created with their invented technique of printing on Japanese gampi paper over gold leaf, but also toned cyanotypes on aluminium. The exhibited works span a decade, from images made during their numerous visits to Japan to their recent abstractions of polarised light that help them to understand concepts and ideas that transcend representation.

Angel Albarrán (b.1969, Barcelona) and Anna Cabrera (b. 1969, Sevilla) have worked collaboratively as art photographers since 1996. Influenced by both occidental and oriental thinkers and artists, their photographs question our assumptions of time, place and identity to stimulate a new understanding of one’s own experience and perception. Their photographs have been exhibited across Europe, the United States and Japan and are held in the private collections of Hermès, the Goetz Collection, Banco de Santander, The German Bundestag, and De Nederlandsche Bank among others. The artists are based in Barcelona, Spain.”
