Author: Silvia Camporesi
It's a difficult task for a photographer to depict a place of death with a positive tone. The Expiatory Chapel is an imposing monument that stands where King Umberto I of Savoy was killed. Through her research, Silvia Camporesi invites the reader to learn more about a controversial work worthy of a new look. Lisa Parola, innovative art historian, dissects the contradictory nature of the celebratory Chapel, while Marinella Paderni critically explores Camporesi's photographic project.Altri sguardi, an editorial series promoted by the General Directorate of Museums of the Ministry of Culture, sets out on a photographic journey through museum landscapes: archaeological areas, museum houses, monuments and museums in the most traditional sense are offered to the lens of large authors. This series – curated by the art historian Maura Picciau – explores lesser-known places in Italy through the eyes of great photographers and the words of writers and critics to rediscover artistic heritage with other eyes.
