CESURA opens the doors of its headquarters in Pianello Val Tidone (Italy) for two days of portfolio reviews, studio visits, talks, and the exhibition “ZECCHE PUNK HC”, dedicated to our founder and biggest firestarter, photographer Andy Rocchelli.
Project promoted and supported by Direzione Generale Creatività Contemporanea del Ministero per i beni e le attività culturali e per il turismo.
“ZECCHE PUNK HC” is an exhibition about Andy Rocchelli that explores the relation between his photographs and the collective consciousness that generated around him after his death.
Andy Rocchelli has been a part of CESURA from the very beginning. He was one of our founding members, an unforgotten photographer and irreplaceable travel companion. His main photographic projects focused on human rights violations in the Russian Caucasus, the crisis in Kyrgyzstan and the Arab Springs in Tunisia and Libya. In Italy, he focused on religious faiths, organized crime in Calabria, African migrants and their exploitation in the south. Andy was killed in 2014 while covering the Ukrainian conflict.
Exhibition opens on Saturday, June 26th, 11.00 AM
Location: Bocciofila of Pianello Val Tidone (Viale Castagnetti 10).
