Fernando Gimeno Pol (Barcelona, 1989) is a visual artist with a focus on photography and sound. His work has been published and exhibited in several countries, including Germany, France, and England, to name a few.
In addition to his activity as a photographer, he is also recognized for his work as a sound producer. His music has been broadcasted on radio stations and shows such as Paralelo 3 in Barcelona, HÖR in Berlin, Redlight Radio in Amsterdam, or Radio 8000 in Munich.
He received the Denkzeit artistic production grant for his experimental sound piece "Neue Räume" in Leipzig. Shortly afterward, he started an ambitious photographic and audiovisual project in the same city entitled "Auwald." This work combines photography, sound, and video to represent time and the human condition.
In July (2024), the Alt-Iba9 Contemporary Art Gallery in Barcelona featured an extensive interview with him on this subject, alongside seven photographs from various projects. These images will be included in the collectors' art book ''Interviews With Artists'' to be launched during the VIP opening of the ARCOmadrid Art Fair 2025 and showcased throughout the fair (March 5–9).
The book will also appear at ARCOlisboa in Portugal (May 2025) and the ArtsLibris International Fair of Artist Books and PhotoBooks
at MACBA Museum of Contemporary Art in Barcelona (November 2025).
He won first prize at the Torrent Jove20 photography contest in Torrent (2024) and received anaward for his sound piece at the Music Hackathon contest hosted by Sono·lab at 'Las Naves' cultural center in Valencia.
Works such as "Red Light," which received critical acclaim from Ivory Press and Makma, stand out. He has also participated in exhibitions such as
"Interiors" curated by Aaron Stern (NY) at Der Greif in Munich,
or "T.P.C" curated by Matt Martin at Urban Spree Galerie, Berlin.
