Eternidad fugitiva

At the beginning of the 1980s, Mexican photographer Manuel Álvarez Bravo, commissioned by the Televisa Cultural Foundation, embarked on an adventure that is still in full swing today: the creation of a collection of photography representative of the most important movements and creators that this discipline has had in its century-and-a-half or more lifetime. Eternidad Fugitiva delves into recurrent themes in the history of photography: the war, the catastrophe, the city, the body, the portrait, death, with classical and contemporary images taken by some of the most important photographers ever.
