Más Morena
Más Morena
by Javier Hirschfeld
Nov 2014 / Aug 2015
Más Morena
is the story of a game of languages, of a journey around the figure of Julio Romero de Torres and the revision of the contemporary language of photography and its resources.
Hirschfeld proposes a journey through aesthetical experimentation bringing together the Senegalese everyday life and the Andalusian Romantic painting of Julio Romero de Torres. His intention is not the occasional mimesis; far from this mirror-play, the artist proposes a journey between cultures, confronting different aesthetics within the framework of cultural syncretism.
