Hidden Narratives brings together the work of Isabel Muñoz (Barcelona, 1951) and Susan Meiselas (Baltimore, 1958), two key names in contemporary photography, in an exercise of visual narration that reflects the complex reality of a series of women survivors of domestic and sexual violence. A study through cases in different sociopolitical and geographical contexts. Hidden personal stories that are revealed within a hermetic architecture, a space that symbolizes both the limits of the body itself and the need for an intimate environment of protection and liberation.

See how documentary photography transformed during the 1970s.
The 1970s was a decade of uncertainty in the United States. Americans witnessed soaring inflation, energy crises, and the Watergate scandal, as well as protests about pressing issues such as the Vietnam War, women’s rights, gay liberation, and the environment. The country’s profound upheaval formed the backdrop for a revolution in documentary photography. Activism and a growing awareness and acceptance of diversity opened the field to underrepresented voices. At the same time, artistic experimentation fueled the reimagining of what documentary photographs could look like.
Featuring some 100 works by more than 80 artists, The ΚΌ70s Lens examines how photographers reinvented documentary practice during this radical shift in American life.
