About the Item
'Spanische Köpfe' book by José Ortiz Echagüe, 1929.
Published by Ernst Wasmuth in Berlin (Germany).
In good original condition, with consistent with age and use, preserving a beautiful patina with some scratches.
José Ortiz-Echagüe (1886-1980) was a Spanish entrepreneur, Industrial and military engineer, pilot and photographer. Ortiz-Echagüe believed strongly on the one hand that Spain must modernize itself in accordance with the spirit of the times - inter alia by founding Industrial companies - but on the other hand was well aware that a broad modernization could lead to disappearance of traditional clothing, a change in the villages and even a transformation of the landscape. He wanted at least to capture with his camera and hold this cultural heritage, before the change occurred. In Berlin in 1929 an exhibition of his photographs was held and after that, his book 'Spanische Köpfe - Bilder aus Kastilien, Aragonien und Andalusien' was published. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York organized in 1960 a retrospective exhibition entitled 'Spectacular Spain', in which Ortiz-Echagüe appeared alongside artists such as Goya. This exhibition displayed eighty photographs of Ortiz-Echagüe. In 1998 the University of Navarra, owner of a great part of Ortiz-Echagüe's photographic collection, based on the selection made by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, organized a retrospective exhibition of photographs, spanning some sixty years of production until 1964. Since 1998 this selection has travelled around various museums and exhibitions, including the 'Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya' (National Art Museum of Catalonia), the Hôtel de Sully in Paris (an exhibition entitled 'Mirages of Spain' in 1999), the 'Sala de Armas de la Ciudadela de Pamplona' (Hall of Arms of the Pamplona Citadel), the 'Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía' (National Art Museum Reina Sofía) (the latter exceeding 150,000 visitors), the 'Palacio del Infantado' (Palace of Infantado') in Guadalajara, or even the 'Sala Amós Salvador' (Hall of Amós Salvador) in Logroño.
