Amazing trip to World Press Photo exhibition in Barcelona

Sara Cusidó.
Last Saturday, a punch of pupils of 4rt ESO and batxillerat of the Sant Gervasi School went to see the World Press Photo exposition in CCCB, Barcelona.

World Press Photo is run as an independent, non-profit organization with its office in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, where World Press Photo was founded in 1955.

First and foremost, World Press Photo is known for organizing the world's largest and most prestigious annual press photography contest. Prize winning photographs are assembled into a travelling exhibition that is visited by over two million people in some 45 countries worldwide.

Injustice, anger, sadness, understanding and welfare, were some of the mixed feelings that arose inside of the people that watched the art that was exposed in the large gallery of CCCB. Photos that captivate you and move you where the action took place, and, while you can’t avoid keep watching it, you seem to hear the desperate cries of the people, or the sound of the fire that burns up the cigarette of the soldier.

A really interesting experience that you can recommend to everyone, That when you cross the glass doors that returns you to the street makes you come to the conclusion that maybe we live to live moments that die.
