Disfrutar
in the Alhambra

Organized by Lunwerg and sponsored by the AXA Foundation, with the collaboration of the Council of the Alhambra and Generalife
Curator: Joaquín Araújo
This exhibition takes us on a journey through the mountains of this planet in 68 photographs taken by some of the world’s best nature photographers. This open-air exhibition offers some of the most amazing photographs of mountain landscapes and the world’s highest summits. 
Sponsored by the AXA foundation and curated by the naturalist Joaquín Araújo, the exhibition is a wake-up call about the importance of conserving our natural environment for the future of our planet.
This exhibition seeks to arouse our interest in mountains as landscapes in a delicate state of equilibrium. Mountains have a very important role due to their influence on climate and weather conditions in the different regions and in the world as a whole. Current global problems such as climate change, economic development and population growth have increased the difficulties faced by mountain peoples. Sustainable development is therefore especially important in mountain regions.
The exhibition is divided into various different sections: “The Most Difficult Mountains”, “The Most Beautiful Mountains”, “Holy Mountains”, “Mountains of Ice”, “Mountains of Fire”, “Polar Mountains”, “Mountains in Deserts” and “Mountains With History”.

The exhibition is rounded off with a catalogue with all the photographs accompanied by texts by two well-known geographers who specialize in mountain areas, Pedro Nicolás and Raúl Martín, and a prologue by Joaquín Araújo.

The last picture in the exhibition is by the Granada photographer Pepe Marín, and is dedicated to Sierra Nevada, an island of biodiversity due to its location on the southern tip of Europe, and which together with the city of Granada and the Alhambra forms one of Europe’s richest cultural landscapes.
