Venice: Casa dei Tre Oci – Rene Burri and Ferdinando Scianna. At the Casa dei Tre Oci, until January 8, two exhibitions dedicated to two masters of the history of photography: Rene Burri and Ferdinando Scianna.  Rene Burri. Utopia”, organized by Magnum Photos in collaboration with the Casa dei Tre Oci, and curated by Michael Koetzle, and “Ferdinando Scianna. Il Ghetto di Venezia 500 anni dopo”, curated by Denis Curti. The show of work by Ferdinando Scianna exhibits the photographs taken for the Fondazione di Venezia and specifically realised for the Tre Oci on the occasion of the five hundredth anniversary of the establishment of the Jewish Ghetto in Venice.

 

“Photography was and is a bridge between us and reality. In order to fix an instant.  Today there is a wall (of images) that, paradoxically, no longer allows us to see the world. Submerged by millions of photos, we have lost our memory.”
Ferdinando Scianna

"The enormous social changes taking place in our age of technology reflected in music, painting, literature and architecture are casting a new face for humanity.Tracing these developments, and conveying my thoughts and images of them, is what I consider to be my job.”
Rene Burri
