Women of Water – Exhibition in Barcelona
April 14, 2008
An interesting exhibition is in Barcelona this days. Women of Water is about Africa, women and the problem of water.
Through the photographies of the catalan photo-journalist Tomás Abella we can see this problematic in some places of Africa, focussing in the zone of Ethiopia mainly.
Abella illustrates a daily life of women in diverse African countries, searching water, to which they dedicate between five and twelve hours in a day.
Until 18/05/2008, the exhibition is in CASA AMATLLER: Pg Gràcia, 0041 – Tel. 934961245
