BIOGRAPHY
José Manuel Ballester (Madrid, born in 1960), painter and potographer, degree in Fine
Arts in 1984 from the Universidad Complutense of Madrid, Spanish Photography Award 2010.
He began his artistic career with paintings focusing on the techniques of the Italian and Flemish Schools of the 15th and 18th centuries. Starting in 1990 he began to combine painting and photography. Among his numerous expositions we would like to point out “Lugares de Paso”
(Valencia 2003), “Setting Out (New York 2003) or “Habitación 523” (Museo Nacional Centro de
Arte Reina Dofia, Madrid 2005). Together with other artists he participated in numerous exhibitions such as ARCO, ART CHICAGO, ART FORUM GERMANY and PARISPHOTO and cities such as Dallas, Miami, Sao Paolo, Dubai, Peking, Shanghai, Toronto, and many others.
In 1999 he was awarded the Spanish Etching Award. In 2006 he received the Goya Award for
Painting of Villa de Madrid and later in 2008 he was awarded the Photography Award of the Comunidad de Madrid. Lately, he received the Spanish Photography Award 2010 on 10 November
of the past year from the Ministry for Culture. The jury voted for him by the majority because of his personal history, his very peculiar interpretation of architectural space and light and his outstanding renovation of photographic techniques. His artworks are part of the collections of MNCARS, Marugame Museum for Contemporary Spanish Art in Japan, IVAM Valencia, Art Museum Miami
and Cisneros Fontanals Art Foundation Miami, Central Academy of Fine Arts of Peking, Patio Herreriano, 21 Century Museum of Kentucky, Würth Museum, Telefónica Foundation, Banco Espiritú Santo and Coca Cola Foundation among others.
