Cale Garrido
Info
Cale Garrido(*1990) is a Spanish independent journalist, photo editor, and curator based in Hamburg, Germany. She works on documentary and artistic photography projects, exhibitions, and publications. After her Journalism studies, she self-published two photobooks with documentary photographer Philipp Meuser: Kadosh (2015) and Neorrurales (2018), focussing on the politics of housing and demographics in different contexts. Since 2016, she has worked as a photo editor for Greenpeace-related publications in Germany. This experience has fostered a lasting interest in environmentally engaging photographic projects and brought her to curate group shows like Urgent Arts of Living (Kaunas Photography Gallery, 2019) and What if Earth becomes Uninhabitable (Co-curator Peter Lindhorst, PHmuseum, 2020). As a member of the artists’ and photographers’ collective APPARAT, founded in Berlin in 2017, she curated the exhibition Die Anderen sind Wir. Bilder einer dissonanten Gesellschaft (Brandenburgischen Landesmuseum für Moderne Kunst in Cottbus, 2019). She regularly collaborates with Kaunas Photography Gallery and is co-editor of the publications Joan Fontcuberta: Crisis of History (Co-curator Alison Nordström, 2020) and Women's Workshop (Upcoming, 2022).
Having worked as an assistant curator at the 7thTriennial of Photography Hamburg in 2018, she has joined the curatorial team for the 8th edition in 2022 under the artistic direction of Koyo Kouoh and together with fellow curators Rasha Salti, Oluremi C. Onabanjo, and Gabriella Beckhurst Feijoo.
