Decisive Portraits (Retratos decisivos)

Retratos decisivos was a temporary public art project commissioned by and realized in collaboration with PHotoEspaña in Madrid from May 28 - June 30, 2004. The project consisted of both an extensive installation in Madrid's metro station Nuevos Ministerios and a brochure that was distributed for free among the users of the Madrid metro. The work is based on the series Decisive Portraits. The art installation is derived from portraits taken by George Garland in April and May 1944 in Petworth, Sussex.
