The legacy of Lleida reporter Joan Andreu Puig Farran (Belianes, 1904 - Barcelona, ​​1982) is full of iconic images. Sports became a massive phenomenon in the 1920s and 1930s. There are also family images by Francesc Macià, in which everyday life and politics blend, and of the ravages of the October Events, as well as the iconic photograph of President Lluís Companys at the Pins del Vallès military training camp. Puig Farran was best known for an article that Josep Cruanyes dedicated to him in the magazine Head and for the work of the Observatory of Daily Life, which included him in its book on Catalan photojournalists of the 1930s, and the Barcelona Photographic Archive. And this Thursday, the Mapfre Foundation's Kbr center opens its first monographic exhibition, entitled Joan Andreu Puig Farran: the turbulent decade (1929-1939). "Puig Farran is one of the most important of the small group of photographers who marked a turning point in photojournalism in Barcelona, ​​​​and I would say also in Spain," says Antoni Monné Campañà, the curator of the exhibition along with Arnau González and Vilalta. Monné is similar to another legendary reporter, Antoni Campañà, who partnered with Puig Farran upon his return from exile in a postcard and tourist guidebook company.
