De Elliot Erwitt no he tenido la suerte de ver una exposici?n tan completa, tan solo algunas de sus obras, siempre geniales! De Garcia Rodero s? que le he visto varias exposicioes, su trabajo ?La Espa?a oculta? es lo que m?s me gusta de ella, lo hizo llevando una vida aut?nticamente ?bohemia?, en un Seat 600, se compr? un saco de dormir y as?, con escasos medios recorri? Espa?a.
