Color Cartagena. The Hay Festival through the lens of Daniel Mordzinski

Cartagena 2025, Thursday 30 January 2025

This book celebrates two decades of the Hay Festival Cartagena, Colombia’s great event dedicated to the book and culture. Daniel Mordzinski (Argentina), known as the “writer’s photographer”, offers a playful and unusual view of literature; it gives us his viewpoint together with texts that offer a panorama given by a photographer who has been immersed in the book world for almost half a century. A brief anecdote and a few thoughts accompany each photo, and together with what the images show us, we are party to what goes on outside the frame. Color Cartagena, the official book of twenty years of the Hay Festival, offers the reader a unique experience: the chance to glimpse the visual and emotional kaleidoscope of an exceptional witness to the literature of our time. With Cristina Fuentes La Roche (Spain), Catalina Gómez Ángel (Colombia), Daniel Samper Pizano (Colombia) and Jaime Abello Banfi (Colombia) in conversation with Felipe Restrepo Pombo.
