The City of Galvez by Oscar Guzmán
"The line that divides the real from the imaginary is more imaginary than real...."
"The images of the City of Galvez constitute a document of a place that exists at some level of Reality. Galvez, with its famous Floating Cupolas, its capricious architecture and its advanced methods of urban transport, constitutes a peculiar document: Despite having characteristics of a photographic record, the images of Galvez don’t have and never have had a counterpart in the physical world.
The photographic document is a record that remits us to a point in space and time, that is, it’s an index. Therefore, the index of Galvez remits us to the reality of imagination. In this way, Galvez acquires its right to be considered a document of Reality, making it evident the impossibility to create frontiers between the real and the imaginary."
