Platinotypes

In Isabel Muñoz. Platinotypes, the last winner of the Spanish National Photography Award introduces to us a selection of her most representative series. Master of the frame and able to show the most beautiful spirit of what she portrays, each of her series is the result of the fieldwork and immersion in the cultures she explores. In N2 Gallery you can see the series Flamenco (1989), Tango (1989), Cuban Dance (1995), Turkish Wrestling (1996), Ethiopia (2002-2003), Maras (2006), Dance Mevlevi (2011), Primates (2013-2015), Thaipusam (2016) and Metamorphosis (2016).

The platinotype, which is usually hidden behind the photo, reflects the gesture of the artist and is revealed here as matter of the photo, as well as the handmade papers chosen to give more materiality to photography. In addition to the durability and tonal richness that this technique ensures, the platinum-colored brushstroke, applied by the photographer herself on the paper, makes each copy unique.
