Versailles by Robert Polidori


Versailles by Robert Polidori focuses

on the powerful beauty of the Palace of Versailles.

A selection of 35 large-scale photographs

that Robert Polidori captured over a span of 25 years

addressing the conservation of the lavish palace.

Robert Polidori explores the idea of presenting

the interior of a room as a means of insight

into the soul of those who inhabited them.

With this project the photographer challenges

the idea of restoring the palace to its original state.

For Polidori, Versailles is not so much genuinely old

but a constant re-fabrication of the old

in order to keep the past alive.

The heterogeneous family of  Fornasetti

vases by Bitossi Ceramiche is growing.

All creations are offspring of Piero and Barnaba Fornasetti

and born from a chalk mould of a vase

designed by Piero in the 50′s:

later found in the cellar by his son Barnaba.

This ‘theme’ has been used for creating new limited edition vases.

and a nickname such as: Ciccio (Chubby), Smilzo (Skinny), Bitorzolo

(Lumpy), Flora, l’Antipatico (The Unpleasant).

Loretta Lux

Loretta Lux uses the magic of contemporary photographic techniques

to transform one image into another.

Having studied painting before taking up photography,

Loretta Lux’s careful analysis of classic portrait painting

has inspired the balance between  a clearly fixed portrait composition

and the application of cutting edge photographic technology.

Contemporary children pose for her photos but dressed as though

they come from the past; they are placed in backgrounds

so calm and peaceful that the lack of movement gradually becomes alienating.

Loretta Lux is a master at preserving an intense calm while creating an undercurrent

of disturbing emotions.
