This book reproduces over 250 images that compose the ambitious project on which Alberto García-Alix has been working for several years in Madrid, Paris and Beijing. Through an intense narration, De donde no se vuelve is a profound trip in time and in the author’s life, a true life story of the artist. García-Alix says that photography is a medium that moves the spectator to the other side of life. Under this premise, his work acquires a poetic nature, an acute sense in which each of his portraits takes on a transcendent dimension.
