UNTIL SUNDAY 17/11
F. CHIRIVELLA SORIANO. Valeriola, 13
The genocide in Gaza stars in the winning photo of the most important photojournalism contest in the world, he World Press Photo, and you can see it in the exhibition that every year at the Chirivella Soriano Foundation brings together some of the most striking photographs captured last year for media outlets around the world.. Like all the images that come from Gaza, It is heartbreaking that of Inas Abu Maamar disconsolately hugging the shroud of her five-year-old niece murdered by the Israeli army in a bombing on Khan Younis. The amazing thing about the scene captured by Mohammed Salem It oozes pain even though we don't see the face or body of either of the two protagonists., that intertwine forming a sober and dramatic diagonal. The girl, Saly, increases the number of 41.000 dead palestinians (mostly women and children) since the Israeli Government began its ethnic cleansing in Palestine. The other winning projects of the WPP24 reflect topics such as caring for parents when they get older, the difficult situation of migrant families on the borders of Mexico or daily life in Ukraine under the Russian invasion. All, in an exhibition that is always hard to see and makes news and art embrace each other. S.M.
