Pere Formiguera Cronos High Quality [DIRECT]

It was a portrait of an old man, one of the many anonymous subjects Formiguera had immortalized in his study of time and decay. But this print—this "High Quality" variant—was a revelation.

Following his passing, Formiguera's work, including Cronos and other series like Ulls Clucs , continues to be studied and exhibited as an essential part of the artistic evolution in Spain. Conclusion

: High-quality, stark black-and-white film served as the uniform visual language.

In 1987, he embarked on a monumental project named after , the personification of time in Greek mythology. The premise was deceptively simple but required extraordinary discipline: pere formiguera cronos high quality

He often experimented with chemical processes, pushing the limits of silver gelatin paper to create images that felt less like snapshots and more like etchings or stone tablets. This technical rigor served a thematic purpose: by rendering the human face with such intense clarity, he forced the viewer to confront the physical reality of aging, denying us the luxury of looking away.

Every subject was framed identically against a neutral background.

In a low-resolution image, aging is only visible in broad strokes—a changing hairstyle or a deepening wrinkle. In high quality, the human face becomes an intricate landscape. Viewers can track the precise micro-changes that occur over a decade: The gradual thinning of skin and shift in bone prominence. This technical rigor served a thematic purpose: by

    I hate this movie with a passion. I went to see it because a friend told me it was the greatest (and scariest) film ever. I was bored witless. It finally started to get interesting... and then ended 5 minutes later. Three cretins more deserving to die in the woods I have never seen in a film. Water flows downhill! There is only one river on the map you are using! I also hated it because I worked in TV and kept thinking things like "Well the reason you've run out of cigarettes is because that rucksack must be jammed full of film cans and videotapes, so there's no room for ciggies". The bit where 2 of them are having an argument with the 3rd filming it... then one of the 2 picks up a camera so there's footage of person 3 joining the argument... no, no, no! Human beings arguing do not pause to film someone else!

    Luckily, since I saw it shortly after it came out and therefore when it was still being talked about, I did not feel in the least cheated: I had no expectations in the first place.

    My main reaction was "goodness, don't they know any more interesting swear-words than THAT? What boring little people. And what on earth will they have left to say if something does suddenly rise up and rend them limb from limb, now they have used up the only emphatic they know?"

    As far as I recall, mostly "gluk" as the camera cuts out.

    My memories of this are entirely bound up in the spectacle of the event.

    I saw it in a crowded theatre the week it came out at the insistence of friends with a large group of friends.

    It was a boring watch and it was dumb and “follow the river” and “maybe just burn the house” were expressed among my friends as it was watched.

    All that said the atmosphere in the theatre was genuinely tense in a way I’ve never experienced before or since and quite a number of folks were genuinely shaken as they left the theatre.

    I can’t imagine anyone ever wanting to re-watch it and the effect of the film on people I knew well absolutely puzzled me.
