Spain, village of Guadix. 9 8 1999.
Some people prefer black. Others fancy green, yellow or brown paint and decorate themselves with it all over. Five hundred years ago a disagreement between two priests ended in the popular festival El Cascamorras. It takes place yearly in the Southern Spanish village of Guadix. “Be careful, at seven o’clock everybody goes mad.”
With this picture there is a text by Marie Louise Schipper.
