Exhibition

Margullo Books presents in this edition of Hybrid Art Fair 2026 a careful selection of Canarian authors who use photography as a fundamental tool of their creative expression. The works explore a wide spectrum of visual records that deepen the expression and roots of islands. Crossed by the unique idiosyncrasy of living in an archipelago, photographic works manifest the being and being insular.

The image becomes the latency of uniqueness, identity and contradictions proper to the territory. The exhibit highlights how these creators use photography to capture the essence of their context.

About the exhibitor

Margullo Books is a project for the dissemination of photographic and visual culture created by Rafael Arocha. An editorial, training and advisory space with the vocation of supporting the commitment to author photography in the Canary Islands. We believe that the islands are still "orphaned" by more plural, diverse and non-stereotyped visual narratives, so we aim to encourage the development of a personal photograph that is an alternative to pre-established imaginaries. A photograph that goes deeper, that marks the stories, experience and being in the Canary Islands.
