«This and All Cities» marks the first solo exhibition of artist Jon Gorospe (Vitoria-Gasteiz, 1986) in Madrid. His work focuses on the representation of the anthropized landscape, developing several bodies of work at present. As one of the Authors of the new wave of European photography, Jon Gorospe has been recognized by several public and private institutions such as the Guggenheim Museum (USA and Spain), Sasakawa Foundation (Scandinavia and Japan), Futures Photography (European Culture Program) and the Ankaria Foundation (Spain). The exhibition presents selected works from various projects the author has been working on since 2018, focusing on the exploration of architecture, urban space and the aesthetics of contemporary metropolises. The images in this collection function as fragments of a single city, offering visions of a contemporary metropolis in the form of refined and minimal representations that explore the limits of figuration. The opening shots are captures of economic and bureaucratic centres in different cities, where parts of buildings and advertising elements make up the first series of the exhibition. The central point of the exhibition is a triptych that portrays a nocturnal urban landscape, where the city is glimpsed through the lights emitted by offices, homes and street lamps. The third and final series, titled “The Stylite,” focuses on pillars and columns that support financial buildings, stripping them of their practical function to focus on their morphology. This approach transforms architecture into sculpture. The title of the series comes from the 5th-century Christian hermits, known for spending their lives atop pillars in the middle of the desert as an act of devotion and penance, removed from the earthly world and closer to the heavenly realm.
