The Vulnerable Body, an exhibition by Victoria Diehl

The Vulnerable Body, an exhibition by Victoria Diehl

Victoria Diehl is a young photographer born in La Coruña, Spain, in 1978 and, despite her short career she has been awarded and has exhibited her works many times. Her ability to present photographic works full of romance and sensuality combining the contemporary and classic style is truly amazing and in her work life and death are intertwined all the time. This time anyone who wants to enjoy her work can attend the Cero Gallery, located in Madrid, which will host the exhibition “The Vulnerable Body” that will be displayed from December 1 until February 3, 2011. This exhibition is a beautiful and disturbing sample by the photographer where images are in process of metamorphosis where, for example, a stone will turn into human flesh and also, conversely, where a human body will end up petrified. In “The Vulnerable Body” Diehl shows again the importance of the intermediate spaces that so much attract her attention and which have always been part of her exhibitions and screenshots. This way, she will take the viewer into an imaginary and nonexistent universe where nothing can be considered impossible and unreal and where the only thing that matters is the perspective of the artist.

Madrid v Barcelona: who will bring home the bacon? Before comparing both cities with each other, first we should talk about the things they have in common. Both cities are capitals, Barcelona of Catalonia and Madrid of Spain. The population of both cities is big, although in Madrid live more than 3.200.000 citizens, meanwhile in Barcelona the number comes only to 1.700.000 inhabitants. Furthermore, the Spanish economy makes its benefits due to both cities. Those aspects can be very interesting, but they are completely irrelevant when it comes to the decision where to spend your holidays. Let’s talk about more important categories: What about the creative world of culture and art in both cosmopolitan cities? Barcelona offers you important museums, like the Dalí, Picasso or National Art Museum of Catalonia and a lot of more impressive expositions of the alternative art, but Madrid wins the match with one of the most important museums in Europe: the Prado.
