About the Item

This artwork belongs to the acclaimed Vida Detenida series by Pedro Almodóvar (Spanish, b. 1949), internationally renowned filmmaker and one of the most influential figures in contemporary cinema. First exhibited in 2018 at the Marlborough Gallery in Madrid, the series marked a significant moment in Almodóvar’s visual practice beyond filmmaking, revealing his long-standing fascination with color, domestic objects, and still-life composition. The Joy of Memphis is a digital print on Dibond, executed with exceptional technical quality. The work transforms everyday objects—flowers, fruits, ceramics, and decorative elements—into vibrant still lifes that echo the director’s unmistakable cinematic language. Strong color contrasts, dramatic lighting, and the meticulous arrangement of objects reflect his mastery in creating emotional narratives from ordinary scenes. This piece encapsulates Almodóvar’s ability to elevate the domestic environment into a stage of expressive intensity, bridging photography, cinema, and contemporary art.
