Abstract

Conversation with the photographer Gregori Civera on January 28, 2025 to discuss his personal trajectory in relation to architectural photography and in particular his long collaboration with Ricardo Bofill’s Taller de Arquitectura, which makes him the main visual interpreter of the formal, material and plastic identity of this fiery architecture, deserving today a new recognition precisely because of its remarkable visual nature.
