AGUAS de Alicante Museum has proudly opened its exhibition entitled: The Caves of Steel.

The exhibition brings together pieces by the Cantabrian artist, Manuel Alvarez Diestro, from three decades of photography on five continents and will remain on show until September 15 at the Pozos de Garrigos annexed to the Museum.

The artist confirmed: “My proposal is to reflect the expansion of human beings in the landscape through the construction of cities. For this exhibition, I have focused on the construction of cities in the Mediterranean area, choosing Alicante, Torrevieja and Benidorm among others.

“As a result of several personal trips to these three Mediterranean enclaves, I consider that the typology of vertical, high­density construction connects very well with the discourse of Asian cities. The relationship of the Hong Kong towers has an obvious similarity with Benidorm or Albufereta in Alicante.”
