《地图折叠的地方》是对摄影师（也是编辑）Juan Valbuena的职业生涯中期的一次回顾，也是在马德里Sala Canal de Isabel II举办的一场重要展览的目录。这本书通过这位摄影师的五个项目——从1999年到最后一件作品Dalind（仍未出版）介绍了他的发展历程。Juan Valbuena拍摄的图像与旅行、领土和记忆有关，以及这些与人类的关系。Juan Valbuena(1973年生于西班牙马德里)在内心深处是一名水手，他对故事非常着迷。他的所有项目，从Noray，Un lugar de la Mancha，Salitre，和Ojos que no ven，corazón que no siente，到Dalind（他最近的一个作品，仍在进行中），都需要时间来完成，经过多年的发展，就像它们需要那些观看它们的人付出努力一样。

Where the maps fold works as a mid-

career review in the complex world as photographer of the, also editor, Juan Valbuena and as a catalogue of an important exhibition at the Sala Canal de Isabel II in Madrid. The book is a journey through the evolution of this photographer through five of his projects, from 1999 until his last work Dalind, still unpublished. Juan Valbuena images have to do with travel, territory and memory, and how these relate to the human being. A sailor at heart, Juan Valbuena (b. 1973 in Madrid, Spain) is fascinated by tales. In this book he embarks on a voyage, leading us through each one of his works, toward the stories to be found in the interstices, in the crevices of territories without images, where he brings to light experiences hitherto rendered invisible, all but impossible to photograph, and condemned to silence. All of his projects, from Noray, Un lugar de la Mancha, Salitre, and Ojos que no ven, corazón que no siente, to Dalind, his most recent work still in progress, require time to complete, through years of development, just as they demand an effort on the part of those who view them.They demand a commitment on our part not to be mere spectators, but also interpreters of a present or a past. Valbuena's photography is made to be experienced, constantly seeking, as it does, to solve a riddle or to reveal a secret.To open the map charted by Juan Valbuena is to glimpse a door to dialogue, a conversation with others, with our fellow human beings: it is an invitation to greater solidarity.
