“Élégies” is a retrospective body of work which brings together a varied sample of the career of the artist Jorge Fuembuena, winner of the X edition of the Pilar Citoler International Prize for Contemporary Photography. The exhibition and its catalogue are both planned as an experience, a visual game that the artist and curator Alejandro Castellote have been working on for some time. The passage of time, death, innocence, the divine… there are many themes that intertwine in this body of work displayed and published by the University of Córdoba and Editorial RM.

Jorge Fuembuena (Zaragoza, 1979), lives and works in Madrid. His work has received many awards such as the Pilar Citoler International Biennial Award for Contemporary Photography 2019, the Enaire Foundation award 2019, the Caja Madrid Generations award 2011, the International Festival of Visual Arts Emergent 2010, OCEMX Award 2011 (Mexico City), ARCO 2010 Photo Reportage Award and Gold Medal at the PX3 Prix 2012 (Paris, France), the Santa Isabel Portugal Photography Award 2008, IPA 2012 Competition (Lucie Foundation, NYC) and has received grants such as the Santa Maria de Albarracín Photography Foundation 2010, the Encontro de Artistas Novos Cidade Da Cultura 2011 or the Instituto Europeo di Design Grant to study the European Master of Fine Art Photography in 2013.
