Descripción de la Exposición

From reconstruction to adversity, populations of Ibero-American countries have managed to face the vicissitudes caused by climate change through small ventures with more or less technological influence. The ability to use imagination, creativity and hope in a better world, has allowed the emergence of sustainable economies projects that open new paths and alternatives on today’s world. This exhibition aims to gather images of these projects and enterprises that have emerged as a means of survival, challenging climate change. Not only does it focus on the aesthetic aspects of photography itself, but it also aims to give testimony to the commitment of our countries throughout its changes. Thus, the exhibition will be a showcase for the member countries of the AACIA (Ibero-American Cultural Attachés Association) to show, through their photographers, forms of address, either individually or governmental, different socio-economic profiles of a society under construction. AACIA’s mission is to promote, disseminate, and preserve the heritage, culture, and art of Ibero-America in the Washington D.C. area while working actively to build bridges between Latin America, Portugal, Spain, and the United States.
