The show

From 30 October 2023 to 19 January 2024 the spaces of the Briganti Library and Photo Library will host the exhibition “Occational Diptychs. That is, 'the causality' of art” edited by Lucia Simona Pacchierotti and Carlo Pennatini. The collective Occasional Diptychs was born from the synergistic collaboration between the Santa Maria della Scala, some photographers from the Siena Foto Club coordinated by Carlo Pennatini and with the collector and photographer Ferruccio Malandrini.


The artists participating in the project were asked for a selection of photographs taken during events and/or moments of various kinds: sport, entertainment, folklore, landscape, street. Photographs that superficially have no connection to works of pictorial or sculptural art. The next phase of the work was the search for the work of art to match, within the vast iconographic repertoire preserved in the Giuliano Briganti Photo Library. The choice was made according to criteria of assonance, evocation and resonance, a sort of game of perceptions, in an attempt to identify the work in its 'causality'. For this reason Occasional Diptychs is not the presentation of photographic reinterpretations of works of figurative art, we did not want to showcase tableau vivants.
