An extraordinary portraitist who masterfully combines classicism and modernity. Eduardo Momene is an extraordinary portraitist who masterfully combines classicism and modernity. With each of his black-and-white studio portraits, he searches for timeless elegance and preciosity, captivating contemporary viewers. Although his work is portrait-centered, he is not interested in the personality of his subjects; for Momene, they are mere actors in the photographer’s visual construction. In his own words: ‘I love the beauty that people provide to photographs … but I am only interested in the photographs.’ The images comprising this new PHotoBolsillo title are a small sample of his work in the studio during four decades.
