The Catalunya La Pedrera Foundation and the Iluro Foundation present an anthological exhibition devoted to the Barcelona-based photographer Leopoldo Pomés in Mataró. The exhibition ‘Leopoldo Pomés. Flashback’ was shown for the first time in La Pedrera’s exhibition hall in 2015. Antoni Tàpies and Teresa Gimpera, not to mention advertising campaigns for Terry and Freixenet, are just some of this photographer’s numerous pictures on display in this exhibition. With 120 works, ‘Leopoldo Pomés. Flashback’ shows a sweeping retrospective of the oeuvre of one of the indisputable touchstones in contemporary Catalan photography.

The concerts at La Pedrera are the culmination of this laboratory of artistic experiences, the outcome of a prior process of research, innovation and creation. The goal is to promote talented young creators like Els Jóvens, Mourn, Pavvla, Avstral, Playback Maracas and Baiuca, who are working with famous groups from the alternative visual scene this year. The family session will be held on Sunday 24 March with music by the Orchestra Fireluche and the screenings of Morgan Caney.
