In 1967, Toni Catany began working as a freelance photographer creating travel reports for La Vanguardia and Destino. Ever since his first exhibition in 1972, his work has featured in countless public and private collections around the world. He was awarded the Premio Nacional de Fotografía from the Spanish Ministry of Culture and the Premi Nacional d’Arts Plàstiques from the Generalitat de Catalunya, both in 2001. His images emerge from contemplating faceted nature, in order to immortalize it in its purest state. He often experimented with nineteenth-century photographic techniques, such as calotype and Polaroid, whereby nudes, landscapes, portraits and still lifes intoxicated by a melancholic atmosphere reflect timelessness and reality.
