The mountainous heart of Alto Minho, in the North of Portugal, is a mystical territory, where isolation caused by the natural environment has shaped the beliefs of its inhabitants for centuries. Here, the distance with the afterlife narrows, and several spiritual practices, that many would believe only remain in the memory of old books, are still alive among the population: spells, people capable of communicating with the dead, possessions, black magic night rituals, a trail of alleged witches scattered throughout the villages, sacrifices, exorcisms, apparitions, portals to other worlds and a wide range of amulets and pagan rituals of white magic as a form of protection against Evil.

Currently, the world’s population is concentrated in overcrowded urban environments, where the amalgamation of origins usually leads to cultural homogenization, the loss of native values and beliefs. Modern society, now enlightened, demands rational explanations, the disbelief in the myth.

And yet, since the beginning of time, several phenomena happen around Man without him being able to obtain a rational explanation for them.

Os batismos da meia-noite is a photographic essay halfway between fantasy and ethnographic research about a set of beliefs that many insist on classifying as folklore that belongs to the past. The work confirms the survival of a unique spiritual worldview. A legacy of popular culture passed down through generations in a place as symbolic as is Serra da Peneda: the mountain where the forces of light and darkness are waging a battle since immemorial time.

A project documenting the long journey of thirteen migrant children who arrived in the Canary Islands, their personal stories, and those of the families they left behind in their countries of origin. The object is a fragile book: it has lost its cover, revealing its inner pages arranged like a colorful flag—one for each protagonist and another blue like the shared sky and sea.

What happens when a crisis catches you so off guard that it makes you physically ill and deeply depressed? You experience the loss of the world as it once was. Psychologists call this ambiguous loss: the world still exists, but something essential seems to have been taken from you. Lawlessness, pollution, climate change and an economy relentlessly propelled by profit and growth can together awaken a profound sense of powerlessness, of mourning for something intangible that seems to be gone forever. Grief can spark anger and action, but also acceptance and resignation: let the storm rage. In the plastic sea, modern Europe reveals itself in all its nakedness.

In southern Spain lies Europe’s largest vegetable garden: an endless sea of plastic greenhouses, visible even from space. Thanks to abundant sunshine and efficient water use, it supplies cheap vegetables and fruit to our supermarkets. But behind this efficiency lie the exploitation of migrants, inhumane living conditions, and ecological devastation. How long will Europe tolerate exploitation and ecological ruin—all for the sake of cheap produce?

Plastic Sea, Perfect Storm is part of The Europeans; a portrait of modern Europe at a time when the continent is struggling. In this multi-year project, photographer Rob Hornstra and writer Arnold van Bruggen travel from region to region and from theme to theme, creating a portrait of the European heartland in the 2020s.

Love in a Time of Allegory asks how we can still feel, desire, and imagine in an age of relentless realism. Moving between images and text, Nicholas Muellner’s illustrated essay turns to allegory as a way of thinking through politics, love, and meaning when private life is inseparable from public crisis.

Haunted by political and ecological anxiety and by the erosion of shared truths, Muellner argues that realism jeopardises our capacity to imagine the world as anything other than it already is, asking how fiction and metaphor might open other ways of seeing. The book unfolds as a meditation on desire and belief, on how intimacy persists within disillusionment, and how emotion becomes a form of resistance. 

Drawing on histories of art, literature, and philosophy, Muellner proposes that allegory, like love, keeps open the possibility of connection in a fractured world. Love and allegory resist the flattening of experience, insisting that imagination remains a radical, collaborative act capable of transforming even the most precarious realities into tenderness and hope.

On 29 October 2024, torrential rain fell on the province of Valencia, leaving villages in ruins and claiming the lives of hundreds of people.

Among the immense material and emotional losses, one of many was Ricardo Cases’ library. 

On 29 October 2024, torrential rain fell on the province of Valencia, leaving villages devastated and claiming the lives of hundreds of people.

Among the enormous material and emotional losses, one of many was Ricardo Cases’s library. A column of water poured into the photographer’s studio and swept away the 800 books that, over the years, had contributed to his education in photography and in life.

When it was all over, the books were recovered scattered across the ravine, soaked and covered in mud. This gave him the opportunity to bid farewell to the volumes whose pages, once dry, remained stuck together forever. In doing so, he discovered that those fundamental and enduring images by the masters of photography, which he had looked at so many times, had been literally enveloped in mud, suddenly compelled to speak of other, more urgent matters.

As he peeled the pages apart, the photographs recombined into arbitrary collages that screamed an unknown meaning. All that knowledge and emotion consolidated in the archive we thought we knew had been erased, like veins on mud, traces of what once was.

A different function took hold: that of an archaeology of emotions, where time, photography and mud combined to create new meanings.

Documenting all of this was the photographer’s reaction to the loss: that which died gave birth to something else.

Thus, those photographs of photographs gathered in this Catalogue are not only a testimony to an irreparable loss, but also to the reconstruction of the lost library. With the passage of time, the water that had dried the clay will be the same. The new archive points towards memory and oblivion; between the two lies the possibility that the certainties with which we live may vanish from one day to the next.

This project was made possible solely thanks to the efforts and generosity of:

Born out of the rescue of family photographs damaged by the DANA that struck Valencia and L’Horta Sud in 2024, *L’Empremta de l’Aigua* is an exercise in collective memory and resilience. Drawing on personal archives marked by water and mud, the book transforms the imprint of the disaster into a visual narrative and turns the fragility of the domestic image into a shared heritage.

Distilled from sixty‑nine journals kept over the course of fifty‑plus years, Josef Koudelka: Diaries offers a look inside the mind and artistic process of the iconoclastic Czech photographer renowned for a life in exile and legendary projects on the Roma, the 1968 Soviet-led invasion in Prague, and the devastating impact humans have on the landscape. Facsimile pages from the diaries, along with images by the photographer, including self‑portraits, lend the volume an immediacy and authenticity. As curator Tomáš Pospěch writes, “Koudelka’s diaries are a ‘cookbook’ of classic photography. He associated with the most renowned photographers. His notes sum up his rich experience, including with the now‑vanishing technology of analog black‑and‑white photography. His remarks, quips, and stories reappear, just as he repeatedly made resolutions, affirmed the rules he had adopted, and recalled earlier events and dreams.” Diaries is a perfect companion to Josef Koudelka: Next (2023), the visual biography by Melissa Harris.

A rare glimpse into the mind and artistic process of one of the world’s greatest photographers.

Mixedness is my Mythology explores the historical relationship between South Africa and the Netherlands that revolves around the connections and contradictions of migration, ethnicity, colonialism and apartheid. Farren was born in South Africa in 1993, the official last year of the apartheid era that classified her as Coloured. Farren’s grandparents were forcefully removed and her parents chose to raise Farren in The Netherlands from the age of six. Being born in South Africa and growing up in the Netherlands has created a point of intersectionality in which she bring South African, Dutch, African American and Black American cultural aspects together in images.
