Book Launch: Esto Es España (Spain, Unveiled)

  • PHOTO BOOK CAFE 4 Leonard Circus London, England, EC2A 4DQ United Kingdom (map)

Join photographer Sergio Pontier and stylist Juanjose Mouko Nsue for the launch of Esto es España, a powerful new photobook and exhibition that reimagines what it means to be Black and Spanish today.

Through striking visuals and fashion-driven storytelling, Esto es España reframes Spain’s national identity by centering its Afro-descendant communities — reclaiming cultural icons from flamenco to football and presenting Blackness as an integral part of Spanish heritage.

The evening will feature a selection of photographs from the book, offering an intimate glimpse into Pontier and Mouko Nsue’s creative process. Visitors can explore how traditional and contemporary aesthetics merge seamlessly in their vision of belonging, pride, and representation.

Introduced by Tosin Adeosun, this event is both a celebration, a conversation and a fitting tribute — an invitation to reflect on visibility, culture, and the power of image-making in rewriting spanish cultural history.
