When the great fi lmmaker Carlos Saura was a young man, he
desired to create a book about his native Spain that would
transgress the propaganda imagery of the Franco regime. He
strove to depict his country as seen through his camera when
he set out on a journey through Andalusia and central Spain
in his Fiat 600 in the late 1950s. The trip left a deep impression
on his fi rst documentary fi lm, "Cuenca" (1958). Since his youth Saura has been fascinated not only by the process of
photographing but also by its technology, as demonstrated by his museum-quality collection of hundreds of historical and self-made cameras. Torn between the two media at the
beginning of his career, Saura eventually chose to become a
filmmaker but has continued to take photographs.
España años 50 offers a comprehensive insight into Saura's
photography with a focus on his black-and-white work of the
1950s: compelling images of landscapes, villages, bullfi ghts
and people of another era. Photographs of Saura's diploma
film project, "La Tarde de Domingo" (1957), are also present in the book, making it the defi nitive representation of his
photographic oeuvre.
