For more than a year, Sobre la Alhambra has been exploring the phenomenon of mass cultural tourism centred on visits to the Alhambra, one of the most photographed monuments in the world.
“So a new Alhambra begins to appear thought the work od Fernando Maquieira, who wants us to look again with him a t what we have seen so often -a space whose familiarity prevents us from seeing it…”
Carlos Gollonet,
prologue to the book “Sobre la Alhambra”, 2005.
This is a series made in 2004 thanks to a grant from the Diputación de Granada to exhibit at the Palacio de los Condes de Gabia.
