• Few words about Exhibition

The cultural heritage, material and intangible, records and depicts the historical development, while at the same time it shapes the identity of a place occupying a large part of its modern life. Monuments, through the small or large past, through the depiction of important or insignificant – if any – moments, are an integral part of the cultural heritage that some left to the next. But there is also the place, the one that beyond its narrow geographical meaning, changes through human paths, shaping its life then and today. Monuments and places speak to our subconscious, conveying information, in a non-verbal way, about our human history but also about the stories of the people who connected with them. Finally, it is the photographic lens that tries to highlight the spectators or invisible aspects of a culture, through the special personal gaze, through the photographic thought of each of us.
