In November 2022, the Museum incorporated, through a donation from his parents, José and Àgueda, the photographic collection of Josep M. Bendicho Esteban (Badalona 1969-2016), which includes photographs on paper, slides and negatives.
Josep M. Bendicho started in photography when he was only 17 years old. Later, he started doing occasional jobs as a photographer for a magazine specializing in travel, and as a location finder for advertisements and films, as was the case with Biutiful (2010), by Alejandro González Iñárritu.
In 2000, he gained considerable notoriety with the publication of an article in La Vanguardia about the brutality against Muslims in the town of El Ejido (Almeria).
He also worked as a film director.
For some time we have been working on choosing the materials that will need to be preserved and digitizing the content.
This album, which shows images that are negative, is a first sample of this author’s work.
