PhotoEspaña10

Monday, 5th July, 2010

Photo España is an International Festival of Photography and Visual Arts (since 1998), one of the most relevant visual arts events in the word. It is one of the central international forums for photography, making it the most popular cultural event in Spain.

I spent few days last week in Madrid, so I had the chance to see a few exhibitions part of the festival. I found Harold Edgerton exhibition quite interesting. An inventor and an artist, pioneered the strobe flash, stop-action photography and a method of taking super-fast images called Rapatronic. These images allowed very early times in a nuclear explosion’s fireball growth to be recorded on film. The exposures were often as short as 10 nanoseconds, and each Rapatronic camera would take exactly one photograph.

If you are in Madrid between 9th June to 25th July , do not miss it. You will find Isabel Muñoz, Helen Levitt, Eustachy Kossakowski exhibitions among others.
