The district of La Chanca crouches at your feet, luminous and white, like an invention of the senses.<\/q>\u00a0Those were the words Juan Goytisolo used to describe the district of La Chanca, in Almeria (Spain). The same place that P\u00e9rez Siquier photographed for a decade, and which is depicted in\u00a0La Ni\u00f1a Blanca<\/em>.<\/p>

In an austere black and white, the photographer travels through a city quarter frozen in time. Each shot dignifies the poverty that plagues this neighborhood and sketches the humanity of its subjects, like the little girl who watches the visitor with curiosity from her front door.<\/p>

To P\u00e9rez Siquier we owe the specialized magazine AFAL, which brought together renowned names such as Masats, Terr\u00e9, Cuallad\u00f3, Miserachs or Sommers. We must also thank him for the way he documented beauty in the most neglected corners, his ability to reinvent himself or the irony that tinges his color photographs. These are reasons enough for him to win Spain\u2019s National Photography Award in 2000.<\/p>

Fifty years after taking this photograph, the author was visited by\u00a0La Ni\u00f1a Blanca<\/em>\u2019s daughter, an exchange of glances that Siquier returned by offering her a copy of the photograph. Some time later, the subject of his photograph visited Siquier and they both visited the place where she was immortalized. They found no trace of the house. Nor of the magic that trapped Goytisolo or Siquier. Some corners will only remain in our memory.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Carlos P\u00e9rez Siquier<\/h2>

Almer\u00eda, 1930<\/p>

He is considered one of the pioneers of avant-garde photography in Spain. In 1956, together with Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda Artero, he founded the AFAL group, which brought together a generation of photographers challenging stereotypes. His first series in the neighborhood of La Chanca, which became a turning point in Spanish photography, dates from this period. In 2003 he was awarded Spain\u2019s National Photography Award.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
