Libros del Silencio

Photo book on Carmen Amaya, a flamenco dancer who started performing at a very young age and who graced stages the world over. Because of the illness that would lead to her premature death, the singer decided to return to Barcelona, the city of her birth, where she would spend the last year of her life. The book is a journey in images through the final year of the artist's life, a busy year in which, among other things, she would star in the film Los Tarantos. It chronicles the final year of a unique artist through the intense and emotive photographs of Colita and Julio Ubiña.
