Until September 22 “Estudio Elemental del Levante” offers a retrospective of the five series made by the photographer in the Levante, the Spanish Mediterranean coast, during more than eight years of work. Ricardo Cases is interested in his environment, but does not support the documentary function, he only records facts. Explore all the semantic possibilities of the image. Blinding light, explosive colors, degraded objects, decaying characters, reveals the visual singularity of this “ungovernable, fascinating and hallucinogenic country”. At first glance, Ricardo Cases’ photographs are very funny and allow us to go beyond stereotypes, obtain reading keys and point the way through this territory. Conceived as a restricted geography, these images, however, have a universal resonance: mutations of territories, nostalgia, respect for local riches and traditions.
