- Visual artist who develops his projects around the territory and the expansion of the concept of landscape. Through gestures and ephemeral artistic interventions in carefully chosen places, the author proposes a playful and uninhibited look at that territory. His artistic corpus is supplied by maps, cartography and even toponymy, representations and human interventions of a landscape imagined over time, which are the seed for many of his projects. For Albert Gusi, the landscape must be a reagent of the project, never a mere repository of the work.

Since 2017, together with Joan Fontcuberta and Laia Casanova, he has been director of the Panoràmic Granollers festival linked to cinema, photography and the visual arts. And in 2021 he creates a new festival project that links Industry and Culture: NYS Polígon Arts. Since 2014 he has been the director of the Grisart International School of Photography in Barcelona.
