Joan Colom, a pivotal figure in Catalan culture and Spanish photography, is celebrated in this comprehensive monograph featuring over 500 photographs from his extensive career. The book showcases his iconic black-and-white images from the 1950s and 60s, captured clandestinely in Barcelona's Barrio Chino, depicting the vibrant street life and underworld. It also introduces his lesser-known color reportage from the 1990s. Published alongside a major exhibition at The Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya, this monograph highlights Colom's artistic evolution and his significant archival donation to the museum.
