The Xavier Miserachs Photography Biennial is known as a platform for the dissemination of documentary photography, and has remained true to this aim ever since its first edition.
Supporting the biennial for yet a further year, the Fundació Vila Casas is putting on a show by Miquel Dewever-Plana (Paris, 1961) entitled Exhibit-Publish.
For over 20 years the photojournalist Miquel Dewever-Plana has been working on long-term projects in Latin America, particularly in Guatemala and Mexico. A sine qua non of all his projects is that the works are accompanied by the publication of a book. These books are used as a support for the narrative as well as the photographic and evidence-based research, as a tool for work and reflection, as a place for storing memories, as an object and, especially, as a way of interacting with and giving recognition to the people photographed.
