Museum of Contemporary Photography

In the collections of the Museum of Contemporary Photography the landscape theme has had and still maintains an extremely significant presence, both from a symbolic point of view - the Museum project itself starts from the experience of Archivio dello spazio which involved 58 photographers between 1988 and 1997 – both above all because of the seminal role that photography of places has played in the evolution of Italian photography since the 1980s.

A first important nucleus of images conserved in the Museum is represented by works by those who are today considered the great masters of Italian and European photography. In more recent years, a further, variegated nucleus of works has gradually been added to this by authors belonging to new generations who have dealt with an ever more extensive notion of landscape.

These authors have been acquired following different lines of research: a series of participatory projects and works of public art; a series of commissions reserved for the younger generations; the production or acquisition of important works created by some important authors who were not present in the Museum's collections, artists belonging to a sort of hinge generation, born between the mid-sixties and mid-seventies, who trained in a line with the tradition of Italian landscape photography but which then extended its practices and languages in less orthodox directions, consistent with the evolution of the international context.

The works of the 6 artists who make up the exhibition LANDSCAPE AFTER LANDSCAPE belong to this last group: Andrea Botto, Claudio Gobbi, Stefano Graziani, Giovanni Hänninen, Sabrina Ragucci, Filippo Romano. Over the years, these are authors who have developed research that is now recognized nationally and internationally, coherently experimenting with languages and practices that reflect on the landscape from unprecedented and often surprising perspectives.

The projects, created between 2010 and 2020, were acquired in 2021 thanks to the Photography Strategy tender promoted by the Directorate General for Contemporary Creativity ( DGCC ) of the MIC and are now being exhibited to the public for the first time. Overall, the exhibition features over 100 works.
