Javier Vallhonrat
The series The Possessed Space is the result of several years spent working with dancer Dominique Abel, the ideal model for Javier Vallhonrat, who wanted to photograph the human body in highly geometric spaces.

Autograms
In this photographic study of the self, Javier Vallhonrat set out to probe the artistic creation inherent in photography. Alone in his studio with no light, using only matches, in summer 1990 and throughout 1991 he worked on this extraordinary series of self-portraits entitled Autograms.

The study emphasizes the role of the arts and humanities in the re-plotting of gender and also links cultural production to political circumstances, specifically to the end of the Franco dictatorship and the transitional to a new democracy in Spain. The inclusion of both the visual art of Marina Núnez and art photographs as well as literary authors and dramatists offers views of overarching motifs in the cultural production of Spain. The book includes an historical component, with an analysis of works by major nineteenth and early twentieth-century Spanish poets, including Espronceda, Bécquer, Villaspesas, Lorca, and the pioneer female author Blanca de los Rios. The list of writers from the 1970s forward includes both highly recognized figures, Clara Janés, María Victoria Atencia, Eduardo Quiles and an extensive group of important writers less recognized beyond among critics.
