SELTZ by Ritter Ferrer takes part in the 13th edition of Art Photo Bcn from May 8 to 10 at the DHub, alongside Cristina García Rodero. The artist will present two of her most emblematic series: "Holi, la celebración del amor" and "España Oculta", offering a unique opportunity to experience her deeply human and documentary gaze.

The series "Holi, la celebración del amor" continues García Rodero’s immersive way of working from within the celebrations themselves, with a direct and intimate perspective. On this occasion, the photographer travels to India to document Holi, a festival that marks the arrival of spring and celebrates love, color, and the triumph of good over evil. In these images, color is not just a visual element but the core of the experience- it replaces the black and white of España Oculta and enhances the sense of movement, contact, and collective energy. García Rodero places herself within the action, allowing the intensity of the moment to shape each photograph.

The series "España Oculta" is a direct and unfiltered journey through Spain’s traditions, festivals, and popular rituals at a time of profound transformation. Trained at the Complutense University of Madrid and supported by a grant from the Juan March Foundation, the photographer began a research project that led her to travel across the country for more than fifteen years. Through just over one hundred black-and-white images, Cristina García Rodero presents a real- and at times surreal- portrait of a society observed through its moments of celebration and ritual, at a time when a new world was emerging.

From May 8 to 10. We look forward to seeing you!
