New York – Held until Saturday at the Keith De Lellis Gallery in Manhattan, the artistic and photographic exhibition recounts Italy’s post-war neo-realist period. ” Mid-Century Postwar Italian Photography” features 34 photographs by 27 Italian artists of the postwar period, such as Gianni Berengo Gardin, Nino Migliori and Bruno Rosso. According to the New York Times, “the works on display are by young photographers who in those years chose to break with the aesthetic precedents, and in particular chose to free themselves from the heroic propaganda and ideology of Fascism to focus on the reality, depicting the country’s cultural, social and industrial change.” (9Colonne)
