This exhibition completes the task of classification, catalogation and conservation of the extraordinary collection of Xavier Miserachs (Barcelona, 1937 – Badalona, 1998), deposited at MACBA in 2011. It follows the construction of a visual imaginary of the city of Barcelona through the work of the photographer. Curated by Horacio Fernández, historian of photography, essayist and publisher, and designed by the Langarita-Navarro bureau, the exhibition is centred around the photo-book Barcelona. Blanc i negre, 1964.

The show pays homage to the intense relationship Miserachs had with Barcelona and his decisive influence on the construction of a photographic imaginary of the city that is still powerful today.

Miserachs Barcelona can be regarded as a model for the treatment of the photographic heritage in the age of post-photography, when the materiality and traditional status of photography have been changed forever. The exhibition will show the complexity and richness of Miserachs’ collection, kept at MACBA’s Study Center.

Accompanying the exhibition will be the photo-book Miserachs Barcelona, published jointly with Editorial RM and edited by Horacio Fernández, as well as a book of essays on the photographer.
