Revela’t 2018: Odysseys, a journey full of adventures
Odysseys was the theme of the sixth edition of the festival, which referred us to Homer’s poem recounting the adventures of Odysseus (Ulysses) on his journey from the conquered Troy to his return home, Ithaca.
The word “Odyssey” came to mean in the universal language “journey full of adventure”. A journey where the final destination ceased to be the main objective and became the journey itself, a path that enriches and transforms us, in such a way that we will never be the same as when it began.
At Revela-t we experimented, saw and debated photography, accompanied by important national and international figures, and it brought together the dreamers, the non-conformists, the fearless, the tireless, those who are not afraid to try and explore paths other than the usual ones.
In this edition we had an exhibition by Jeff Bridges, better known for his acting skills.
The Silver Needle of the festival was in this edition for Ferran Freixa.
It was the first edition of what we call Revela’t OFF where different galleries in Barcelona show Revela’t exhibitions.
In December, we did the first edition of Revela’t Winter Madrid.
