LETIZIA BATTAGLIA Photography as a Life Choice in Lubiana from May 25
Letizia Battaglia – Photography as a Life Choice lands in Ljubljana at the Museum and Galleries from May 25th to October 2nd.
The exhibition Photography as a Life Choice, curated by Francesca Alfano Miglietti, organised by Civita Tre Venezie and promoted by the Fondazione di Venezia and Tendercapital, presents 300 photographs, many of which have never been exhibited before, and which reveal the social and political context in which they were shot. The selection of photos was undertaken together with the Letizia Battaglia archive.
Letizia Battaglia was a nonconformist intellectual and photoreporter but also a poetic and political photographer, a woman who was interested in people, art, literature, poetry, life and death. The exhibition Photography as a Life Choice presents 300 photographs, many of which have never been exhibited before, and which reveal the social and political context in which they were shot.
