Stéphany ONFRAY

Stéphany Onfray holds a PhD in Art History from the Complutense University of Madrid. Her dissertation on "Women and photography in 19th-century Spain (1850-1870)" was based on a study of the Colección Castellano at the National Library of Spain. Having studied in France and Spain, she has collaborated with several institutions such as the Prado Museum, the Clothing Museum, the Museum of Decorative Arts and the National Library of Spain. She has also worked as an editorial documentalist for women's history publications. Her work focuses on the relationship that women have had with the photographic image, both as photographers and as portrayed subjects. In particular, she analyzes the strategies used to transform an ideological and political medium into an expressive and personal window.
