Biography

Self-taught, he arrived in Barcelona in 1960 to begin his studies in chemical sciences. There he began his career as a photographer doing travel reports. However, from the very beginning, he opted for themes far removed from photojournalism, and in 1972 he held his first exhibition.[ citation needed ]

In 2023 the Centre Internacional de Fotografia Toni Catany was inaugurated in his hometown. [6]
