autoportraits: david nebreda

This artwork and this life merge indeed, would be this only because this artwork is made exclusively of self-portraits. Unbearable images or shocking for some of them, but also images splendid, indisputably called to take a place among the first in the history of photography. >from *Autoportraits. David Nebreda*. Editions Léo Scheer.

"Nebreda has lowered to the darkest abyss of itself and, after undergoing unspeakable eventful journeys and penalties, it has returned loaded of treasures. Like rutilantes jewels, shine now in the dark of this shady world in which we inhabited all. 'Not further on', seems to proclaim. From the bottom of the cave, from the interior of the cocoon of the metamorphosis, from the chalice of the passion the message emerges from which 'here no longer it is left nothing' - it is only possible to return to begin, or better still, to revive." >from David Nebreda: sacrificio y resurrección, p. 94 *CORPUS SOLUS. Para un mapa del cuerpo en el arte contemporáneo by Juan Antonio Ramírez*. via zherji.
