Guillermo Rodríguez. Madrid, 1981. His wandering life has always been full of searching and has always been marked by a strong need to take a refuge in the Nature on one hand, and by an attraction towards the chaos of urban spaces. These are the two principle factors which have molded his perception of the world and his photography.
After leaving Madrid Professional School of Photography (EFTI) he carries on collecting experience with Jose Latova and Rafael Roa in Madrid and with Tomas Casademunt in Mexico. His visual background keeps growing as he works in the press as a stable collaborator of Madrid newspaper El Economista and Lanzarote magazine Masscultura. When working in the team of the ASF studio he gets to deepen his skills in the technical part of photography.
In his own work and publications on different cultural themes, the Nature, the human being and the traces in the faces, bodies and objects become the primer axes of his inspiration. He takes part in various exhibitions: Espejos de la imagen, una Historia del Retrato en España 19002000. Festival Explora Foto in Salamanca. Tarazona Foto 2004, where he exhibits his work done in Candeal. Estupor y temblores, 10 fotógrafos traducen a Amélie Nothomb in León. Yusur Puentes. Paisaje y arquitectura en Marruecos y España (published by MEDOCC).
