Ricard Terré (Sant Boi de Llobregat, Barcelona, July 5, 1928-Vigo, October 29, 2009), had since childhood a clear inclination for the arts, starting as a painter and caricaturist, which finally crystallized in his fondness for photography in 1955 when he came into contact with the Photographic Association of Catalonia.

In 1956 he participated in the exhibition Fotografía Moderna de la AFC at the Bibliothêque Espagnole in Paris, organized by Oriol Maspons. Only a year later, he became a member of the Afal Group, with which he participated in several exhibitions:The Salon Albert I of Charleroi (Belgium) and the II Biennial of Pescara (Italy) in 1958 and Afal and Les 30 x 40, in the library of the Spanish Embassy in Paris, in 1959. In April 1957 he held his first photographic exhibition with Xavier Miserachs and Ramón Masats at the headquarters of the AFC, and in 1958 he began a collaboration with the cultural magazine Pauta, of Barcelona. He published an important portfolio in the Anuario de la fotografía Afal of 1958.

At the end of the 1960s he abandoned photography, an activity he resumed in 1982, after which he participated in several national and international exhibitions.In 2008, he received the Bartolomé Ros Prize for the best photographic career, awarded by the photography festival PhotoEspaña.

Ricard Terré always defended his non-professional character and proclaimed his independence as a photographer by revolutionizing his approach to his chosen subjects, trying to interfere in them as little as possible. Far from the fashions of his time, he photographed from popular festivals to childhood or liturgical and religious celebrations.
