Industrial Perspectives: Leica & Hasselblad

In the 1960s, the decision was made to portray the company’s new and modern laboratories. To this end, Agustí Centelles, one of the finest Spanish photojournalists, was commissioned. After the Civil War, he turned to industrial photography to avoid reprisals from the regime. Armed with his Leica camera, Centelles captured images of great beauty and artistic value of the company’s facilities. Ten years later came Català-Roca, a renowned photographer who, with his Hasselblad camera, immortalized Uriach’s facilities, events, and people for more than 20 years. Thanks to these two unique artists, this extensive collection offers images from a period of great importance for the country’s industry.
