Spanish photographer (born 1958) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jose Maria Rodriguez Madoz (born 1958) better known as Chema Madoz, is a Spanish photographer, best known for his black and white surrealist and poetic photographs.[1]
Chema Madoz studied Art History at Universidad Complutense de Madrid between 1980 and 1983. It is here that he was first exposed to the study of photography and imaging.
In an interview published in 2001, Chema explains that he currently uses a Hasselblad camera to take his photos. The book, Chema Madoz: Objetos 1990–1999 was presumably shot entirely with this camera, rather than the 6×6 Mamiya he has used previously.[citation needed]
In November 2011, Prince Felipe and Princess Letizia of Spain, with Chilean first lady Cecilia Morel, opened an exhibition of Chema Madoz's work at the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo (Santiago, Chile).[2]
In 1999 the Centro Gallego de Arte Contemporáneo in Santiago de Compostela showed a solo exhibition of works produced between 1996 and 1997. At the end of that year, the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía dedicated to him the solo exhibition "Objetos 1990 - 1999", the first retrospective exhibition that this museum dedicated to a Spanish photographer during his lifetime.[3]
