Private Story
VALPARAISO
The festival invited six Ibero-American artists to intervene in these discarded books. Alvarez's version depicts the twin city of Valparaíso (Florida, US), home to the largest military airbase in the world. Separated by thousands of miles, both places opened the land for men to create spaces where death settled forever—devastation, repetition, dehumanized formality. No entropy was allowed on both suburbian Valparaiso(s). Doomed, recycled, it does not matter. We do not matter.
