Paco Gómez - Fotografias

by Laura Terre Alonso

 Paco Gómez (Pamplona 1918 - Madrid 1998) fue uno de los fotógrafos más destacados del Grupo Afal (1956/1963) y de la llamada Escuela de Madrid, que en los años sesenta llevaron a cabo una importante renovación de la fotografía española. La obra de Paco Gómez, de una gran coherencia tanto temática como formal, tiene una impronta genuina que la distingue de la de cualquier otro fotógrafo de su generación. Podríamos definirlo como el poeta de los muros, los rastros, los espacios desnudos y los pequeños objetos. Su observación del mundo parte de una sensibilidad bien enraizada en la realidad, pero trascendente y cargada de sentido simbólico. Este libro ha sido editado con motivo de una exposición en la Fundación Foto Colectania de Barcelona, entidad que desde 2001 custodia, gestiona y difunde el archivo de este autor. Es el resultado de una intensa labor de investigación de la comisaria y especialista en fotografía española Laura Terré e incluye, junto a las obras más conocidas del autor, algunas inéditas. Esta publicación pretende así dar un paso más en el estudio de la fotografía de Paco Gómez, un autor poco conocido en relación a su importancia capital tanto para la fotografía española como para la internacional.

 This book, an assemblage of photographic pieces, had an uncertain genesis. A contradictory memory of our ancestros, "the ancients", when they were mountains, the primordial days of the volcano-woman and volcano-man, ana ge of giants that inhabit our imagination ando f geological forces that give a body and face to the Nation.In the center of Mexico it is common to find painted walls, ceramic Ware, calendars, key chains, drums, ashtrays, pony glasses, and a long etcetera of decorative objects bearing depictions of foundational myths, the origins of woman, of man, of the Nation, on ther motley surfaces. At the same time, the forms and styles of all this paraphernalia, the materials employed, the way it is distibuted and made use of, clearly reflect our collective visage.The ancient Mexican codices are fundamental documents in the countryÆs collective imagination. This book honors that memory.
