The Uncanny Lens-La lente inquietante

The Uncanny Lens è libro fotografico che accompagnerà l'esposizione di 60 opere degli artisti Joel-Peter Witkin e Roger Ballen presentate al pubblico internazionale in esclusiva assoluta, con la curatela di Fortunato d'Amico e sotto la direzione artistica di Fulvio de Pellegrin e Paolo Dolzan. Le fotografie sono corredate dall'intervento di critici d'arte e filosofi: Sergio Fabio Berardini, Alessio Caliandro, Fortunato D'Amico, Fiorenzo Degasperi, Fulvio de Pellegrin, Paolo Dolzan, Sergio Poggianella, Mauro Zanchi, Michelangelo Zizzi. La distanza tra Joel-Peter Witkin e Roger Ballen è forse solo una coordinata geografica che individua i luoghi del loro operare (Witkin in USA e Ballen in Sud Africa), dato che entrambi esprimono con l'arte gli aspetti più oscuri della condizione umana e questo progetto offre al pubblico l'eccezionale opportunità che dischiude un dialogo privato instaurato tra i due artisti. Le opere selezionate dagli stessi autori condurranno il pubblico in un viaggio di luoghi interiori dove le affinità operative e formali proiettano la fotografia oltre i confini della documentazione, per diventare un potente strumento di esplorazione psicologica e sacrale.

Xu Xiaowei

Through his dreamlike photographic collages, Xu Xiaowei brings together objects, places, and images in contemporary China to reconstruct a fragmented memory. His works convey the disorientation caused by the country's rapid transformations in a visual fiction with dystopian overtones. Through these reconstructed photographs, the artist crafts a suspended space between reality and absurdity, where intimate turmoil surfaces without explanation. Fisheye Magazine, France.  'Xiaowei creates the work in a bid to ‘reinvent’ his memories, reflecting the personal turmoil often experienced in the face of rapid changes in Chinese society. If you’d like a look at some unusual contemporary art photography, this book is certainly a great place to start.' Amateur Photographer. "From film and digital to AI-generated images, Xu Xiaowei has witnessed the transformation of photography technology firsthand. His works blend traditional symbols with futuristic imagery, exploring the paradox of societal development—tradition as the anchor and the future as the sail, both indispensable. He believes that the "irreplaceability" of photography is returning to humanity itself: empathy, emotional flow, and immediate perception are the core elements that machines cannot replicate.” Visionaire China by Jessica and Zou Xunxing

Roger Ballen: Call Of The Void

Roger Ballen: Boyhood

One of the most influential and important photographic artists of the 21st century, Roger Ballen’s photographs span over forty years. His strange and extreme works confront the viewer and challenge them to come with him on a journey into their own minds as he explores the deeper recesses of his own.Born in New York City in 1950, Roger Ballen has lived in South Africa for thirty years, and is one of the most famous photographers of his generation. Son of the Editor-in-Chief at Magnum Photo, Ballen was thirteen when photography caught his attention. His work as a geologist took him out into the countryside and led him to take up his camera and explore the hidden world of small South African towns. At first, he explored the empty streets in the glare of the midday sun but, once he had made the step of knocking on people’s doors, he discovered a world inside these houses, which was to have a profound effect on his work.
