“This exhibition was designed to create the occasion to publicly announce the new course that Alinari 24 ORE is about to undertake in the field of contemporary photography and its art. The only restriction to which the various projects presented by the various artists were subject was that they had to be inspired by an image of the past, the concept of Memory, the Relationship space/time, the representation of a world whose images could be drawn from the immense « Fratelli Alinari » archive.” Fabio Castelli
“These miniature subjects on an invented stage seem to have been caught by the camera as they pass through everyday life. While they are small and inconsequential, they are as large as life because photography always has to do with reality in the world at large.” Frances Lansing
SCHEMA MATER
invitation
It is important to mention here that the Schema Gallery in Florence played a determining role in the city starting in the 1970’s. The artists included in this episode were among those exhibited by the gallery. Luciana Majoni displays her photographs, Angelo Barone shows both sculptures and paintings, Frances Lansing exhibits new paintings and bronzes. One strong unifying thread of the show is the affection all three artists have for their colleague and founder of the Schema, Alberto Moretti and the curator, Raul Dominguez.
The gallery is in Carmignano, a hill town of Prato and will be open until June.
