Exposició “Jacques Léonard: Barcelona inèdita, anys 50”

La Galeria Villa Alegre presents 'Jacques Léonard: Barcelona inèdita, anys 50', an exhibition that brings together a selection of photographs recovered from the negatives of the French photographer Jacques Léonard (Paris, 1909 – l'Escala, 1994). The show, with work for sale, allows discovering an unknown facet of one of the authors who best portrayed 20th-century Barcelona. Although Jacques Léonard is mainly known for his extraordinary work on the Roma community of Barcelona, the continued study of his archive is allowing the recovery of images that move away from this theme and that, in many cases, remained unpublished. These are photographs that expand the understanding of his work and reveal Léonard as an attentive and silent observer of the city's daily life.
