The MaTa venue (a former Tobacco factory) in Modena will host until February 4th, 2018, Seismic Sequence, a collective exhibition dedicated to the earthquake in Italy and its consequences on the community.
Curated by Filippo Maggia, in collaboration with Teresa Serra, the exhibition includes more than seventy works by seven international photographers – Alicja Dobrucka (Poland), Hallgerður Hallgrímsdóttir (Iceland), Naoki Ishikawa (Japan), Tomoko Kikuchi (Japan), Eleonora Quadri (Italy), Olivier Richon (Switzerland/UK) and Valentina Sommariva (Italy) – who have been working in Emilia and in Central Italy to document the earthquake that struck the country between 2009 and 2016: a series of distinct events that, through images, are united in a choral dimension, despite the variety of views adopted by each artist.
To complete the exhibition – organized by the Fondazione Fotografia Modena, the Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Modena and the Modena Municipality, under the patronage of Protezione Civile Nazionale and ANPAS (Associazione Nazionale Pubbliche Assistenze e della Regione Emilia-Romagna) – are an important selection of historical photographs of earthquakes in Italy, curated by Chiara Dall’Olio, and a documentary video conceived and realised by Daniele Ferrero and Roberto Rabitti, shot in the same places visited by photographers, at different moments.
