Òscar, l’Amorós anartista
I’m 50% artist 50% anarquist, my brain is on fire all day long, really can’t stop creating.
I’m in love with quotidian objects and its beauty, always with freedom of creativity, with no rules , every single photo has it’s own concept, and from serie to serie I change this concept, always looking for new staff.
In fact I’m just trying to show what I see and how I see it, it’s my own vision and whom I feel comfortable. Hope you enjoy it and please…
BRAKE THE RULES !

Amorós Photo Gallery
From 2006 to 2011 I ran my own gallery-studio, the Amoros Photo Gallery in Cadaques, where I developed a large part of my most creative and poetic work, a time of success, recognition, national and international awards, exhibitions and happenings.
A happy time in my studio that I shared with many friends and clients whom I thank for their visits and all the support received. In 2007 I won the first prize in Los Angeles and it was a help but with the 2010 crisis I had to say goodbye to that illusion and fight the crisis with all my might.
Now I’m still stand on! and we want to celebrate this 20 years in Cadaqués launching this site to offer limited fine art editions of the very best awarded photos from Oscar Amorós.
If you are interested in other of my works, feel free to visit the site AMOROS PHOTO GALLERY.COM to see a a large view of them done here in Cadaqués but also from New York. Please don’t hesitate to contact me and we arrange it.
Thanks for all
Oscar
