Enrique Leal received his B.F.A. from the Polytechnique University of Valencia, M.F.A. and Ph.D. in Fine Arts from the University of Castilla La Mancha (UCLM). A major body of his work explores photography as a central subject within print media, a vehicle best understood in relation to a host of developing rather than fixating factors. Recipient of fellowships from the Institute of Iberian-American Culture and the Spanish Academy in Rome, he has been an artist in resident at the Frans Masereel Centrum (Belgium), Scuola Internazionale di Grafica (Italy), Proyecto ACE (Argentina) and as a visiting artist at Rutgers Center for Innovative Print and Paper, Rutgers University. Leal’s work has been exhibited and is found in collections in Argentina, Belgium, Brazil, China, France, Hungary, Italy, Spain and the United States.
