Atin Aya

This title explores the work of renowned photographer and photojournalist Atin Aya. Atin Aya Abaurre (1955 - 2007) was a highly respected photojournalist who worked for several important Spanish newspapers. His gaze caught street games, shadows, landscapes and, above all, people and lifestyles. His photography brought together the Bressonian photographic tradition of the ''decisive moment'' and the classical pictorial tradition of composition and use of natural light. One of his greatest skills was his management of time; his photography is full of pauses at the time of the gaze and at the moment of taking the shot, and that allowed him to produce and create with honesty. His creative work, his most personal aspect, is not the result of rushing and neither was it subject to deadlines. See more
