In 2003, the “Asociación OjodePez” in Barcelona launched the magazine of documentary photography “OjodePez”. The association was founded by several photographers with the following declared aims: to internationally promote documentary photography with all its facets and to publish specific themes and photographic projects neglected in conventional media and publications due to a lack of apparent commercial attraction. The artist Frank Kalero is the director of “OjodePez”, which hopes to offer “an undisciplined insight into documentary photography”.
The third issue of the magazine appeared during Frank Kalero’s residence in Berlin as a fellowship-holder at Künstlerhaus Bethanien. Presenting thirteen different photographers, this issue was designed by Sven Ehrmann, Berlin. In Studio 3, Frank Kalero is currently exhibiting numerous photographs and topics from the previous issues, as well as showing a video interview with representatives of OjodePez that gives more insight into the motivation and aims of the magazine’s makers.
