GIACOMO BRUNO – EUROPEAN PHOTOGRAPHY 2017
THRESHOLDS: SPACE AND PEOPLE
Giacomo Bruno and Riccardo Amarri
Investigation of the phenomenological oneiric of the everyday, on the one hand through architectural thresholds, on the other through the souls hidden within them. Two photographers who in complementary ways explore the expectation and mystery of the thresholds of space and people, in a search for the imperceptible moments that connect past, present and future, and the hope they can bring.
James Bruno exposes the project “Essential Lives,” a collection of images born while traveling, as a direct result of an interest in the photographic documentation of everything on this planet that is essential and that at an ever-increasing pace, changes or is destined to disappear.
Each photographic journey undertaken focuses on man and his context, in its uniqueness and simplicity. Without pretension or presumption of wanting to tell of places and people as yet unknown or not yet photographed, the only ambition is to represent them in their beauty and extraordinariness, in their increasingly unstable and precarious balance between the roots of their own culture and the alienating flattening of the new, highlighting the particularities and singularities and restoring dignity and pride to the protagonists of the images. The critical text is edited by. Simona Borrillo.
