Imperdible l'expo d'Helen Levitt al Kbr Mapfre de BCN. Una capsula del temps del NY dels anys 30,40 i 80's. Atapeïts o diafans els enquadres amb mitada documental de Levit, se't queden gravats a la retina. It's a must to see! Si o si!

All I can say about the work I try to do is that the aesthetic is in reality itself.

Tú tampoco sospechaste, como #AntonioMuñozMolina, que ‘esos mundos infantiles inalterables estaban acabándose’. Por eso agradeces a #HelenLevitt que ‘siguiese sus ojos’ y salvase del olvido los momentos gozosos que hoy vuelven a #EmocionArte. #Volveradónde @Seix_Barral
