Architettura e fotografia nelle campagne dell’Emilia-Romagna. Maura Savini, rilievi e progetti - Guido Guidi, fotografie
Architecture and photography in the countryside of Emilia-Romagna. Maura Savini, surveys and projects - Guido Guidi, photographs
From September 29, 2023 to January 7, 2024, MAMbo is pleased to present the exhibition Architettura e fotografia nelle campagne dell’Emilia-Romagna. Maura Savini, rilievi e progetti - Guido Guidi, fotografie [Architecture and Photography in the Emilia-Romagna countryside. Maura Savini, surveys and projects - Guido Guidi, photographs], promoted in collaboration with the Department of Architecture of the University of Bologna.
The exhibition project is based on a comparison between two different modes of knowledge, photography and architecture which, although autonomous, share the common goal of decoding the built spaces where our collective identity resides.
The exhibition, curated by Lorenzo Balbi, is part of the project Architettura rurale in Emilia-Romagna [Rural Architecture in Emilia-Romagna], winner of the Strategia Fotografia 2022 call for proposals promoted by the Ministry of Culture’s Directorate-General for Contemporary Creativity and aimed at the acquisition, production, preservation, and enhancement of photography and the Italian photographic heritage.
Thanks to this important award, six new photographic works by Guido Guidi, presented to the public for the first time on this occasion, will become part of the Museum's permanent collection.
Around this corpus of photographs, the exhibition presents 29 other unpublished photographic productions by Guidi, related to the territories of Granarolo, Minerbio and San Giorgio di Cesena and architectural drawings and surveys, together with historical documents (drawings, maps, cabrei) which document Maura Savini's research on the architecture, land organization and settlements of the Po Valley, whose forms cannot be explained by the logic of functionalism.
For the first time, architecture and photography have found a place in which to highlight the distinctive features of an increasingly less "visible" territory, by intersecting the visual work of Guido Guidi and Maura Savini.
