Discover 'EN ALGÚN LUGAR': Cristina García Rodero's Humanistic Photography Exhibition at the National Anthropology Museum

This exhibition delves into Cristina García Rodero's humanistic and anthropological work, exploring human fragility, emotional intensity, and the body as a symbolic territory. It maps visual expressions of passions, excesses, duels, and celebrations, traversing themes from life to death and the hope for an afterlife.

The exhibition 'EN ALGÚN LUGAR' offers a profound look into the work of Cristina García Rodero, viewed through a humanist and anthropological lens. It investigates the human condition by examining its fragility, emotional intensity, and unique ways of inhabiting the world. Rodero's photography constructs a vivid visual atlas of human passions, excesses, mourning rituals, and celebrations, where the body itself becomes a rich symbolic and expressive territory. Within the National Museum of Anthropology, 'EN ALGÚN LUGAR' guides visitors through the spectrum of human experience, from the celebration of life to the commemoration of death and the contemplation of an afterlife. For decades, Cristina García Rodero has traversed diverse geographies, including Spain, Haiti, India, Georgia, Italy, Mexico, and more recently, New Guinea, Ethiopia, Chad, and South Sudan. Her photographic journeys meticulously follow the traces of human experience in its most emotional and ritualistic dimensions. The curatorial approach for this exhibition introduces a novel perspective, shifting the classical interpretation of her oeuvre and fostering new connections. It establishes a transversal axis that rigorously preserves the essence of Rodero's distinctive gaze, enabling a deeper understanding of how each series in her body of work engages in a continuous dialogue, thereby amplifying the overarching meaning of her artistic output.
