The exhibition, curated by Mario Codognato and promoted by Berggruen Arts & Culture, features 28 photographs by German photographer Matthias Schaller, many created specifically for the occasion. The images, characterized by desaturated tones and a dazzling light, depict the “counterfaçade” of Venetian palaces as a symbol of dialogue between past and present. Schaller portrays a transforming Venice, far from the idea of a “dying” city.
Matthias Schaller was born in Dillingen an der Donau, Germany, in 1965, and currently lives between Venice and New York. His work has been exhibited at the Venice Biennale, the Museum of Modern Art and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Rio de Janeiro, the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and the Kunstpalast in Düsseldorf.
The exhibition is open free to the public on Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays; on other days, visits are available by appointment only.
