Acerca del libro
Brian Jarrel melds his camera and passion for Spain into a singular panorama of the storied Iberian land. About this collection of photographs the critical viewer might be tempted to conclude that Jarrel develops a naïve picture of a modern country; a disappearing world in which burros ply wagons through city streets at the reigns of humble drivers who collect cardboard for recycling—a scene the photographer witnessed during his first visit to Madrid in 1988. Spain is conspicuously blind to the ubiquitous iconography that permeates the modern world, offering instead vistas that preserve the country as a destination of remarkable interest. Come travel through the photographer’s eye from the Alcalá Gate in Madrid, to the Roman ruins of Mérida, to Pizarro’s hometown of Trujillo and discover lo español along your journey.
