Descripción de la Exposición

Between August and November The Photographers' Gallery presents a season of exhibitions and events exploring ideas and images of the Mediterranean, beginning with Mediterranean: Between Reality and Utopia. Any attempt to define the Mediterranean is near impossible: it is a fluid and subjective location. The sea acts as both a bridge and a divider between nations, creating a site on to which hopes and desires are projected, and across which culture, ideas, trade, religions, people, power and economics have moved throughout history. It is possible to have a sense of what the Mediterranean might be without ever having travelled there -- it fills the history of art and literature. Since the beginning of photography the Mediterranean has been a location travelled to, and depicted by, countless photographers. This meeting place of the continents of Europe, Africa and Asia has a rich and layered history full of contradictions and crossovers, myths and projections, fictions and realities. The Mediterranean season launches with the group exhibition Mediterranean: Between Reality and Utopia. From Alexandria to Athens, Barcelona to Beirut, Tangier to Tel Aviv, Mediterranean: Between Reality and Utopia opens up a conversation between contemporary and historical photography. The photographers selected for this exhibition open up the notion of 'mediterranean' as a place and idea open to interpretations.
