Palmira Puig - Untitled (Ibiza) © Marcel Giró-Palmira Puig Estate / Toni Ricart Giró
Biografía del Artista: Since RocioSantaCruz first presented her work in Europe at Paris Photo 2018, Palmira Puig-Giró's work has been included in important international collections. MoMA (Museum of Modern Art, New York) will include her photographs in the exhibition Fotoclubismo: Brazilian Modernist Photography, 1946-1964 in March 2021. A rediscovered signature For decades, Palmira Puig-Giró was known as the muse of her husband, the photographer Marcel Giró. It was not until 2018 that Rocío Santa Cruz, delving into the Giró family archives with the help of Toni Ricart, Marcel's nephew, discovered two photographic languages, two different, yet linked, authorships that coexisted in the photographer's archives. Retracing the trail of this unknown signature, they came to the following conclusion: not only was Palmira the author of an important work of her own, but Marcel's own authorship then acquired a new meaning. The story of the artist and his muse became obsolete and gave way to a more complex, more horizontal, richer narrative. Both artists shared a camera, film, and settings; each with their own vision. The faces of the avant-garde Palmira Puig-Giró was, along with Gertrudes Altschul, Menha S. Polacow, Barbara Mors and Dulce G. Carneiro, one of the few women who were part of the Foto Cine Clube Bandeirante, a collective of avant-garde photographers based in São Paulo. Her work articulates an experimental corpus of portraits and landscapes, where metaphor and social criticism are framed in the same shot. Puig-Giró's photography is nourished by avant-garde, by black and white contrasts, but her signature has a more humanistic tone than that of her São Paulo colleagues. While they tended to sublimate the abstract, the pure moment of visual interruption, Puig-Giró goes beyond the instant and the object. The photographer broadens her vision to show the environment of her photographs, the faces, stories and memories of the places she visits with her camera, and brings everyday life and gestures to an aesthetic plane as meticulous as it is poetic.
