"Vari Carames: A Retrospective Exhibition
"

CGAC presents a show devoted to the work of the photographer Vari Caramés
(Ferrol, Corunna, 1953), within the framework of its exhibition programming
that grants photography, as a discipline, an increasingly decisive position, in
keeping with the current artistic scene, both on a national and an international
scale.
In this retrospective exhibition, the most complete of those held to date, we
have assembled a selection of over a hundred photographs that review his
entire artistic trajectory. To enter the CGAC exhibition halls is to be plunged
into a world of black and white images – some of which are well-known, while
others are on display for the first time – splashed by the colour of his most
recent works.
Vari Caramés transforms his personal way of looking into a magical
suggestive universe. In his poetical snapshots, which in a simple and tender
fashion surround their beholders with an air of complicity, the ordinary
acquires new nuances and time remains in suspension.
