Juan Gatti – Photographics

Exuding bold sexuality and brash Pop colour, the posters and photographs of Juan Gatti defined the graphic face of contemporary Spanish cinema for more than 30 years. Gatti’s design work is closely identified with the films of Pedro Almodóvar, with whom he has closely collaborated since Almodóvar’s breakthrough movie, ‘Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown’ (1988). This celebration of Juan Gatti appraises his work in two volumes: the first gathers his film posters, magazine spreads and other design work, and the second his photographs of Almodóvar superstars such as Penélope Cruz.
