Palazzo dei Principi

1 May - 1 June 2008

 

curated by A.D. Coleman and Todd Brandow for the Foundation for the Exhition of Photography of Minneeapolis (USA)

promoted by: Palazzo Magnani, Provincia di Reggio Emilia
in collaboration with: Comune di Correggio

Arno Rafael Minkkinen (Helsinki, 1945) began to photograph his body in 1970 and has always remained faithful to this unusual motif. The exhibition is an anthology of the work of this cult photographer. Arno’s naked body interacts with natural landscapes (forests, lakes, rivers, mountains, deserts, canyons, oceans and ice flows) in images with extraordinarily formal suggestions that allude to a primordial era in which man, who possessed strength and physical resistance, challenged, faced and lived in harmony with nature.
