The
photographic
exhibition
recovers the tanned faces of the
last fishermen and is a prelude to a
thematic documentary about this
unique fishing art of our culture and
probably unique in the world. Nits de
Tinta is just one part of the extensive
work of Abbott and Escolano, who
for years have documented portraits
of women and men fishermen, details
of the fisheries and panoramic views
of the coast where they were located.
The authors also work on the edition
of a Photo Book.
The mayor, José Chulvi, described
the project as “spectacular and very
interesting”, as it witnesses part of our
heritage “emotional, scenic, cultural
and social and because it dignifies
the work of these fishermen”, while
thanking the Generalitat its support
and sensitivity to cultural initiatives
like this one. Also Cirne Foundation,
which has given its exhibition space
for the public to enjoy the exhibition,
which will be open until the end of
February from 18 to 21 hours.
