KBr de Fundación Mapfre

KBr de Fundación Mapfre is an organization dedicated to photography exhibitions and related cultural activities. It is newsworthy due to its current exhibition featuring the work of Carlos Pérez Siquier, a significant figure in Spanish photography. The exhibition showcases Pérez Siquier's photographs from the 1950s-70s, particularly his documentation of the La Chanca neighborhood in Almería and the rise of mass tourism in Spain. His work captures everyday life, from intimate portraits to broader social changes. The exhibition's relevance lies in its presentation of a key artist's perspective on Spanish society during a period of significant transformation, offering insights into neorealism, costumbrismo, and the impact of tourism.
