The Círculo de Bellas Artes presents in its Picasso Room until next August 18 the exhibition of photographs by Cristina García Rodero entitled España oculta (Spain hidden), in which it immerses the viewer in a fascinating journey through the less known traditions and rituals of this country.
An exhibition that brings together 145 photographs of various themes, from religious celebrations to folk festivals. Cristina García Rodero is a prominent figure in contemporary photography, awarded the National Prize for Photography in 1996 and being the first Spanish to join the agency Magnum.
García Rodero (Puertollano, 1949) has also been awarded the Gold Medal of Merit in Fine Arts in 2005 and the Gold Medal of Merit in Labor in 2014, among many other distinctions. This Manchega is an undisputed reference in contemporary photography. Since its inception, it has traveled thousands of kilometers in a constant search for images and characters.
