On Thursday, December 12 at 6:30 pm, the exhibition Fotofanie opens at EDDART. On this occasion, 109 photographs by Italo Zannier, produced between 2014 and 2017 and printed as unique pieces, will be presented to the public. Among them are some of the most characteristic subjects of Zannier\u2019s poetics, such as shadows, reflections, and images of nature, captured with a digital camera. The photographer\u2019s aim was to develop a project for the \u201cdigital age\u201d that would be entirely different from his previous artistic trajectory. <\/p>\n\n
Italo Zannier (1932) is regarded by many as the master of Italian photography. He began his career around 1952 as a \u201cneo-realist,\u201d producing images depicting subjects from postwar Italy. He later became a critic, collector, curator, and educator, and was the first in Italy to hold a university chair in the history of photography at the University of Venice. After a long period devoted primarily to teaching and critical writing, he returned to photography, taking up his pocket Sony camera once again. <\/p>\n\n
This exhibition aims to present Zannier\u2019s most recent\u2014and therefore most current\u2014work to the public. At its center is the world that surrounds him and his everyday life: his home on the island of Giudecca, the train journey from Venice to Latisana, and his stays in Lignano Pineta. Among the subjects on view are some of the categories dearest to him: self-portraits, fragments, objects, nature, and places of the soul. <\/p>\n\n
The title Fotofanie was coined by the artist himself to emphasize the evanescent nature of the thousands of photographs taken every day. All the works on display come from the private collection of Pietro Valsecchi. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true,"powered_cache_disable_cache":false},"categoria-di-mostre":[58],"class_list":["post-948","mostra","type-mostra","status-publish","hentry","categoria-di-mostre-58","description-off"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eddart.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mostra\/948","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eddart.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mostra"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eddart.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mostra"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eddart.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=948"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"categoria-di-mostre","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eddart.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categoria-di-mostre?post=948"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
