Córdoba. From 29 Sep to 29 Nov 2015

This exhibition retrieves the historic Spanish Golden Age and its still lifes to re-contextualise them in the 21st century, the "Cash for Gold" Age. Traces of what remains the morning after a massive binge party are photographed from different locations and perspectives across Spain.
