Between 1955 and 1985 a creative and adventurous crowd from all over the world arrived in Deyá and formed a community of artists and bon vivants who contributed to the vitality of what we call the Deyá Heydays.
You can help editors Tomás and Oona to prepare the new edition of the Deyá Heydays book:

Still without photo
Below you find a list of names we don’t have usable pics for.
“Usable” meaning:
– photos must be from the 1960s to the early 1980s
– person in question should be in the foreground of the pic
– some blurring, discoloration, over- or underexposing are ok
– we welcome your files, prints, slides or negatives
If you have suggestions or can help us with names, pics or info please
use the form at the top of this page.
Though it would be out of the book’s scope to include every creative person who passed through the village we intend to include those indispensable in creating the ambience which made Deyá a beacon for people in search of creative and personal freedom.
We also do hope that this website could evolve into a sort of permanent “Deiapedia”, where you can post information about anyone you feel has somehow participated in the story of the village.
