It is safe to say that I was walking in blind, completely open to the idea of accepting whatever style of photography I was about to see.             Guadalupe Rosales: Legends Never Die, A Collective Memory was the exhibition on display, and it was a rather small show. The Aperture Gallery itself is a rather small venue, and this exhibition took up about 40% of the space. The display itself was mostly digital on a big screen, showcasing an Instagram account on a flat touch screen TV that viewers could go to that had over 4,000 images achieved for the exhibition: @veteranas_and_rucas.
