“Brescia, a city of art and culture, is once again opening its doors to great author photography” says Emilio Del Bono, Mayor of Brescia. "Never as in these days, still unfortunately characterized by the difficulties caused by the health emergency, do we feel the need for beauty, the desire to return to frequent places dedicated to art and culture, the need to regain possession of the spaces of our great heritage historical and artistic. “Patrimoni” is, in fact, the title that we wanted to give to this year's event. A very fitting and topical theme to reread, in the light of the photographic medium, our historical and cultural identity. "
