Additional information This exhibition presented by Casa Asia gathers file images that document the history of China in the complex historical period that goes from 1949 until the present. The corresponding photographic registers do not only recover a heritage that has been preserved despite the successive adversities that have threatened with their loss, but also the living history of a country through images that have been turned into, due to their rarity, singularity and importance, authentic symbols of history. Simultaneously, the cinematographic trilogy China: a Century of Revolution, unknown in Spain, will be screened.
