Chaque Mercredi Caracas presents a sequence of black and white images taken from the travel sections of the newspapers Le Monde and The New York Times, from the 1960s onwards. By focusing on visual representations of “the Other” in travel reportages and advertisements, the collection of images explores the relationship between colonialism and the evolution of mass tourism in the second half of the 20th century: A world that is within reach and ready for consumption.
