Rastro

José Luis Tejedor

📍 Thompson Hotel Madrid

ES

El Rastro es el famoso mercado que se celebra todos los domingos y días festivos en el barrio de la Latina, en el centro histórico de Madrid. Su oferta varía desde ropa de segunda mano, muebles, libros y objetos de colección hasta antigüedades y curiosidades.

Es conocido por su atmósfera diversa donde se mezcla la tradición con la modernidad del upcycling, transcurrido así por amantes del vintage junto a turistas y paseantes del barrio.

Su historia se remonta al siglo XVIII donde fue consolidándose como un espacio de encuentro para vendedores ambulantes y comerciantes diversos.

José Luis Tejedor representa la permanencia de los espacios frente al movimiento efímero de sus individuos en su serie fotográfica Tránsito, donde a través de la técnica de la sobreexposición el artista crea sobre transparencias que definen el flujo de los transeúntes, creando un acabado casi pictórico sobre sus composiciones fotográficas impresas sobre papel de algodón.

It is known for its diverse atmosphere, where tradition blends with the modern trend of upcycling, attracting vintage enthusiasts alongside tourists and local visitors.

Its history dates back to the 18th century when it gradually became an established meeting place for street vendors and various merchants.

José Luis Tejedor represents the permanence of spaces in contrast to the fleeting movement of individuals in his photographic series Tránsito. Through the technique of overexposure, the artist creates transparencies that define the flow of passersby, achieving an almost painterly finish in his photographic compositions printed on cotton paper.
