Francisco Hermida is one of 40 photographers selected for the sample
"We went to a burger of Calle 52, and when we were seated I saw the image in the mirror, if you look things are reversed, because the photo is from the mirror. " So says Francisco Hermida (Ferrol, 1966) how did the single photograph of a English author who may be from next February 12 in Broadway, in the birthplace of painter Edward Hopper (New York, 1882-1967).
The exhibition commemorates the 40 years after the death of the artist who best captured in his canvases the environment of the Great Depression. Other 39 images of authors from around the world have been selected by the curators Arthur H. Karlewicz Gunter and Ken, who found the photo of Herman in an Internet group.
"there hung photos of the trip we did in 2006, but there was at least 8,000." Not even the present but that the organizers were asked by e-mail to send it.
In this trip, "one of the intentions was to make a series that reflected the atmosphere of the paintings of Hopper, who was always one of my favorite painters," says Herman, who in 1985 moved to A Coruña to study photography in school Pablo Picasso. Four years later he left the picture to work in a fashion company until 1998, recovered the activity.
currently runs a photo studio. And although the 16 degrees below zero planned for next week in New York are not encouraging, Hermida, "with enormous enthusiasm," will be on 12 at the opening of Hopperesque: Realism and Light in Photography.
