TREPAT - Joan Fontcuberta
The boxed set "Trepat" by Spanish artist Joan Fontcuberta (1955-) is published by Bessard Editions in 2014 on the occasion of an exhibition organized by MACSA (Catalonia Archaeology Museum for Agricultural Systems) and dedicated to the Trepat collection, a little-known treasure of Spanish photography history. This series of photographs highlights the centenary of the birth of the Trepat factories, the main producers of agricultural machinery in Spain in the twentieth century. The exhibition was curated by Joan Fontcuberta, a creator himself but also a historian and author of several books on the history of Spanish photography. The images assembled here bear full witness to the experimental path of the avant-garde: from Cubism to New Objectivity, from Preciosism to Surrealism, from Constructivism to Social Realism...
The limited edition comes with a metal piece from the Trepat factory on the front cover.
