The exhibition is part of the official program of the PhotoESPAÑA 2021 Festival.
It consists of public and private commissions focused on documenting Spain’s landscape and territory.
The catalog follows a conversational format and highlights the eleven projects that, in the curators’ opinion, “construct a concise and historically significant narrative on the subject of study.”
The exhibition In Spain. Photography, Commissions, Territories, 1983-2009 showcases various photographic projects exploring cities, territories, and their transformation processes, with 1992 as a central moment. Both the exhibition and its accompanying book reflect, for the first time, the most significant experiences in Spain that have emerged from using photography as a tool for observing and representing territories and their changes.
Structured around three key periods—the 1980s, the major urban transformations linked to the events of 1992, and the first decade of the 21st century—the exhibition presents the work of nearly seventy photographers alongside publications related to the eleven selected surveys.
