Born in Buenos Aires (Argentina) in 1937, he lived in Barcelona from 1976 to his death in 2009. Throughout his professional career he took part in many shows organised in different European capitals. He sometimes worked as a consultant, such as at the exhibition which brought together Spanish portrait photographer sponsored by La Caixa Foundation in Barcelona in 1996. His creative work ran alongside his teaching, bringing him into contact with new generations of photographers and creative groups who he showed his mastery of chiaroscuro to. Many of his works bear witness to his anti-war spirit and denounce violence in general. His work is held in major national and international collection and several books have been published about it.

“Known as ‘the photographer of silence’. Portraits, urban landscapes and his anxiety about the passage of time and the mark it leaves on everything run through his work.”
