For years, contemporary photography and video art have played a substantial role in the avant-garde sector of Spain's multifaceted culture. Their unique quality is grounded in a power of emotion that inscribes in the hues and colors, politics and history a certain something which constitutes Spain's identity. This publication is a collection of works by thirty-one contemporary artists and reflects the cornucopia and continuity of this robust visual culture. Unchecked by academic tendencies, Spanish photography has been gradually developing since the early nineties, finally achieving a breakthrough that established it as an independent medium. The selection of artists here sheds some light on how much this movement has grown and simultaneously established its own methods of expression which can be regarded as unmistakably Spanish.

Examines Spain's contribution to international interest in Gothic culture, film and literatureWith the success of novels such as The Shadow of the Wind and films like The Others, contemporary Spanish culture has contributed a great deal to the imagery and experience of the Gothic, although such contributions are not always recognised as being specifically Spanish in origin. Contemporary Spanish Gothic is the first book to study how the Gothic mode intersects with cultural production in Spain today, considering some of the ways in which such production feeds off and simultaneously feeds into Gothic production more widely. Examining the works of writers and filmmakers like Carlos Ruiz ZafAn, Arturo PA(c)rez-Reverte, Pedro AlmodAvar and Alejandro AmenA!bar, as well as the further reaches of Spanish Gothic influence in the Twilight film series, the book considers images and themes like the mad surgeon and the vulnerable body, the role of the haunted house, and the heritage biopics of Francisco de Goya.
