Sergio Larrain: Retrospective

Sergio Larrain: Retrospective

MonoVisions Black & White Photo Contest 2024

The exhibition traces Sergio Larrain career in a mostly chronological fashion, from the abandoned children to the freer images of the satori and the drawings that occupied him for nearly thirty years.
The terms he uses to describe the state of grace necessary for ‘receiving’ a good image are mystical, even spiritual, as if the images were already present in the cosmos and the photographer acted as a medium.
