Temporary Exhibitions KBr Fundación MAPFRE: Barcelona Photo Center
From 1 October to 17 January 2027:
Dana Lixenberg. American Images
Dana Lixenberg (Amsterdam, 1964) is one of the leading figures in contemporary documentary photography.
Her work, developed mainly in the United States, is characterised by a close, stereotype-free perspective that addresses issues such as inequality, identity and resilience. American Images brings together some of her most significant projects, from Imperial Courts, started after the 1992 Los Angeles riots, to her portraits in Jeffersonville (Indiana) and Shishmaref (Alaska). In collaboration with the Maison Européenne de la
Photographie (MEP), the exhibition spans more than three decades of a body of work focused on representing marginalised communities, iconic figures of popular culture and social landscapes steeped in memory.KBr Flama'26
KBr Flama ’26 presents the sixth edition of KBr Fundación MAPFRE’s annual showcase of the new generation of photographers beginning their professional careers after completing their training in Barcelona. The exhibition features the work of Sara Bravo, Elena Bulet i Llopis, Meghan Mathews and Luca Gaetano Pira, four young photographers who draw on their personal experiences to tackle issues of universal relevance. Their projects combine documentary photography and staged scenes to explore the visibility and struggles of the LGBTIQA+ community, as well as the role of family heritage in building relationships and preserving memory.
