VALENCIA.- In Miradas Reveladoras one can observe a graphic sequence that was intended to be an illustrated report and has ended up being a work of art because of the sharpness of the details in the composition as well as the sensitiveness in reflecting the social discourse that provided each photograph with veracity.

This exhibition is a compilation of images of the most significant sociocultural changes that took place in Cuba 50 years ago and shows the cracks of Cuban society in decisive moments of confrontation with its fate. Some critics talk about the thematic exhibition as a testimony which shows with amazing clarity the atmosphere and circumstances that surrounded individuals, masses, leaders, and those who were captured by the lens.

Miradas Reveladoras gives evidence of how photography helped, as a defence tool with enough symbolic force, to become a symbol of the unlimited possibilities in which reality appears with grandeur in apparently simple situations that still shock spectators today.
