Architecture, like any discipline, develops its theory through words; yet, it is equally capable of thinking in images. When Renaissance humanists began to set forth their knowledge of the art of building in treatises, they tended to combine words and illustrations. In fact, some of the most celebrated treatises resemble visual atlases more than written volumes. But how can an image develop a theory? The theoretical fertility of the image emerges, almost by surprise, if we replace the modern conception of "theory" with the genuine meaning of the Greek term theoria: the act of "contemplation" and "speculation," of developing a "vision."

Part of the CAL (Culture. Architecture. Place) project, promoted by the Contemporary Architecture Foundation with the aim of bringing contemporary architecture to rural areas by highlighting its connection to cultural landscapes, the exhibition Blanco sobre blanco (White on White) has emerged. Composed of eleven pairs of photographs by Fernando Alda—contemporary and traditional, white, and set in Andalusia—the exhibition seeks to establish a dialogue between the images, at times clear and at others hidden, inviting the observer’s complicity.
