About this plan
If you are looking for things to do in Bogotá and photography catches your eye, the Cinemateca has a show worth your time. The exhibit 'Healing Properties of the Portrait' brings together the work of a photography lab where the image is treated as a practice of listening, not just technique.
You will find portraits born from the encounter between the photographer and the subject. Each photo tries to hold on to gestures, feelings, and ways of living in a place that often go unnoticed. The show puts those images into circulation and gives a voice to stories built from everyday life.
Entry is free, so it works well if you want a cultural plan in Bogotá without spending money. Check the schedule and details in the source before you go, since dates can shift.
