No Place like Home
In the organizer's words:
Exhibition opening: ''No Place like Home''
Italian photography since the 1980s
The exhibition ''No Place like Home'' is the first major survey exhibition to present the development of the medium of photography in Italy since the 1980s and deliberately focuses on the Italian perspective on its own country.
Based on a selection of 42 photographers, the exhibition aims to show how Italy, which emerged from the post-war economic boom, has found a credible photographic representation since the 1980s. In doing so, it confronts the cultural and artistic tensions of each decade and shows how Italian photography gradually emerged from the shadow of established art and became autonomous, without forgetting its own cultural heritage.
In addition to internationally renowned and style-defining photographers of the 1980s such as Guido Guidi, Gabriele Basilico and Luigi Ghirri, the exhibition also focuses on the culturally and artistically important era of the 1990s and early 2000s, as well as the generation of young authors of the last 20 years.
For the first time, a period is examined in which photography detached itself from traditional reportage and asserted its own European perspective on the medium of photography.
