Xisco Fernรกndez (1979, Palma of Majorca, Spain) Studied Tourism Administration BA at the University of the Balearic Islands. Following this, in 2004, he moved to Berlin to learn the German language, where he discovered his passion for photography. He began to experiment with light, glances and portraits, discovering endless possibilities in the multi-kulti city. When he returned to Majorca in 2006, he studied Professional Photography in CEF and became assistant of the fashion and corporative photographer Javier de Timoteo. One day joined a photography with other one and decided to experiment with the images in movement. Since then is called videoartist. One year later, in 2008, he moved to Madrid to study Professional Lighting in EFTI alongside some specialised workshops (Anthropological Photography with Jose Manuel Navia and Fashion Photography with Eugenio Recuenco). Here he began to work freelance. Since then, he has dedicated his work predominantly to portraits, events, anthropological and travel photography. His images are a reflection on identity on a journey through different cultures and people, in search of roots and structural connections. Concurrently he began to organise art exhibitions in various venues in Madrid and to work with different artists and painters. In 2010, he opened his own art gallery (Galeria EM7) and his 'coworking' cultural association (Neuroarte), which is also a monthly digital magazine (http://www.neuroarteweb.com). He has organised over 100 art exhibition and cultural events, and has exhibited his own work in cities such as Madrid, Istanbul, Berlin, Rome, Glasgow, Caceres and Palma of Majorca. His curiousity for knowledge brought him to study Camera and Video Edition in 2011, which gave him the opportunity to enter into the audiovisual world, doing visual artwork, advertisements, music videos and documenting urban art. Based on the philosophy of offering the best images to customers and adaptation of its necessities in a world of constant changes, I am available for works in portraits, events, reportage, advertisement, corporative, graphic design, video, video edition, media contents, music videos and much more...
