RGB PHOTOGRAPHIC CULTURE, a cultural management initiative from Alicante directed by photographers Carlos Balsalobre and David Santacruz, presents the contemporary photography magazine RGB Magazine #07 'HER'.
The event will launch a series of actions aimed at revitalizing Alicante's cultural landscape and promoting citizen participation around contemporary photography. These actions consist of an exhibition and a series of parallel activities (guided tours, lectures, children's workshops and concerts) that will take place at the Municipal Arts Center of Alicante, during the month of February 2025.
With the eleven new additions in this edition, there are 188 photographers from the Province of Alicante who have participated to date in one of the magazines published by RGB photographic culture.
The RGB Magazine #07 'HER' project has been selected in the 2024 public call for subsidies for the development of cultural and artistic projects by the Culture Department of the Alicante City Council.
RGB Magazine #07 'HER'
The contributions of the participating authors through public call have made possible the production of the seventh issue of RGB Magazine. A total of 119 authors submitted 198 photographs, of which 62 works were selected. The proposed theme 'HER' has generated as many creative responses as there are perspectives expressed by the selected authors.
Multidisciplinary artist Pepa Marhuenda is the guest author in RGB Magazine #07 'HER'. In this issue she presents her most recent and unpublished photographic series titled Teenager. A work that moves between sculpture and photography, whose nexus is a barbed wire that acts as an ambivalent object, both physical and conceptual. At the magazine presentation she will be accompanied by the Associate Professor of Artistic Education at the University of Valencia, AMPARO ALONSO-SANZ, with whom she will dialogue about her career.
During the presentation, harpist Alba Asensi will perform live an original work composed especially to accompany the projection of the works that make up the magazine.
The iconic Aural Gallery of Alicante, one of the great institutions of our city's artistic landscape in recent decades, is the entity collaborating in this issue 7. Straddling recognition and tribute, we wished to capture in our pages the intense and constant effort of this art gallery that has carried the name of Alicante far beyond our borders.
The 'HER' design of the magazine cover is by Alicante designer María Cano.
