ISOLE RELOAD

Italian Institute of Culture of Warsaw (Poland)

10 Italian islands 70 photographs

​

The exhibition is the result of a specific declination of the Archipelago project for the Italian Institute of Culture in Warsaw. It reshuffles 10 Italian islands over two rooms. A selection of the Italian archipelagos mapped by the project is on display, including the Tuscan Archipelago and the Aeolian, Egadi and Pelagie islands and a selection of shots of the islands of Gorgona and Montecristo of the Tuscan Archipelago, of Ischia of the Campanian Archipelago and Pantelleria.

The exhibition deals with three themes that are transversal to all the islands and archipelagos: water, land, houses.

Large formats, for a more immersive experience, are in contrast to the high resolution detail of smaller fine art prints and with smoller pictures used as contact specimens. A backstage video enriching the photo-exhibition with the fourth dimension of time and sounds open the exhibition.
