The authors examine how these archives have been consolidated as key pieces in the conservation of culture, while facing challenges such as digitalization, commercialization, and globalization. The work raises two fundamental questions: what criteria determine which images are preserved? and which images are relegated to oblivion? These issues take on special relevance in an era where the production of images is uncontainable, yet their consumption and preservation seem impossible to manage in their entirety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCreation and historical evolution of photographic archives.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eConservation of cultural heritage through photography.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eImpact of digitalization on the preservation of images.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCommercialization and globalization of photographic archives.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eSelection criteria: what to conserve and what to leave to oblivion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMass production of images in the contemporary era.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at photography professionals, archivists, curators, art historians, students of disciplines related to image and cultural management, as well as any reader interested in the processes of preserving visual heritage and the ethical and practical dilemmas posed by the accumulation of images in the digital age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat this book offers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eA multidisciplinary vision of the photographic archive from the perspectives of eight experts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eKeys to understanding current criteria for image selection and conservation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eReflections on the impact of technology and the market on the preservation of visual heritage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eA critical analysis of the mass production and consumption of photographs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eConceptual tools to address the future of photographic archives.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e BELLIDO GANT, MARIA LUISA; BOADAS RASET\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e FUNDACION MAPFRE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spanish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eTopic:\u003c\/strong\u003e EXHIBITION AND SPECIFIC COLLECTION CATALOGS, PHOTOGRAPHY AND PHOTOGRAPHERS, PHOTOGRAPHERS, PHOTOGRAPHS: COLLECTIONS, PHOTOGRAPHS: PORTRAITS, PHOTOJOURNALISM, EROTIC AND NUDE PHOTOGRAPHY, AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHY, ARCHIVES, PRESERVATION AND DIGITALIZATION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e NONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDate of publication:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 208\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 570 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEditorial review\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhotography and Archive is presented as a reference work for those seeking to understand the foundations and challenges of photographic preservation in the 21st century.

Throughout 47 years, each photograph maintains a similar composition: the four women, ordered from left to right by age, look directly into the camera. This invariable format allows the viewer to clearly observe the physical and emotional changes that time imprints on the sisters' faces and postures. The series documents not only aging, but also the persistence of the fraternal bond and the strength of a shared gaze.

Fellig, a pioneer of photojournalism. The book is structured around the two major stages of his professional life. The first, the most well-known, positions him as the \"eye\" of the grittiest and most vibrant New York of the Great Depression and World War II, capturing crime scenes, accidents, and life in the slums with an unmistakable flash. The second stage, which he developed in Hollywood starting in 1947, shows a Weegee who, far from losing his essence, applied his direct and uncompromising gaze to the world of cinema, portraying its stars, film sets, and the contradictions of the dream factory. The book demonstrates that, beyond the change of scenery, Weegee's work maintains a constant: a deep and unflinching interest in the human condition and the margins of society.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eStreet photojournalism in 1930s and 40s New York.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe representation of marginality, crime, and urban nightlife.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe evolution of Weegee's documentary style in the context of Hollywood.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe portrait of American society and its contradictions in the mid-20th century.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe coherence of an artistic vision across different professional contexts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at lovers of documentary and street photography interested in the visual history of the 20th century.

After serving as a photographer for the U.S. Army in the Pacific during World War II, he moved to Paris in 1947, a city that would become his definitive home from 1990 onwards. Straddling two cultures, his work integrates elements of the New York Photo League school—where he trained with Sid Grossman and befriended Weegee—and French humanist photography, influenced by Brassaï, who was his mentor in Paris. This publication traces his career, showing how Stettner fused the lyrical French side with the tradition of socially engaged photography to create his own unique humanism, documenting both the streets of Manhattan and the Parisian suburbs with a singular sensibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eStreet photography and urban documentary in New York and Paris.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePhotographic humanism and social commitment in the postwar period.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eInfluence of the Photo League and the New York school of photography.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRelationship between American and French photographic traditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePortrait of daily life and the working class in the 20th century.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at photography enthusiasts and professionals interested in the history of the medium, especially 20th-century documentary and humanist photography.

The publication is structured around the major milestones that defined his work: the economic crisis of 1929, the proclamation of the Second Republic in 1931, and the outbreak of the Civil War in 1936. Special attention is paid to the urban transformation of Barcelona, the photographer's collaboration with Antoni Campañà, and his experiences during the war and subsequent exile. The result is a visual document that combines social chronicle, political activity, and personal testimony, presenting images that remained unpublished until now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDocumentary and auteur photography in the first half of the 20th century.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eUrban transformation and modernization of Barcelona (1924–1936).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eVisual chronicle of the Second Republic and the Spanish Civil War.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRepublican exile and historical memory through imagery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eArtistic collaboration between Joan Andreu Puig Farran and Antoni Campañà.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis catalog is aimed at lovers of historical photography, those interested in photojournalism and the evolution of visual language.
