Exhibition program Homecoming.
«Coming home. But to what home? What does “home” really mean nowadays? Is it a geographical location, a state of mind, a community of people? Or it it, perhaps, simply nostalgia for a place where, if truth be told, we have never really lived?».
Homecoming, in this second cycle of exhibitions devoted to contemporary photography organized by Rifugio Digitale, curated by Irene Alison with Paolo Cagnacci, is an opportunity to explore the concept of home in the complexity of the contemporary world, in the precarious balance between global interconnection and the need to find our own personal roots. Homecoming investigates the concept of identity in relation to places, whether it be a return to our origins, the rediscovery of our culture, or the response to a need to piece together the fragments of our history. Homecoming is also the opportunity to open our horizons to different viewpoints, exploring the histories and languages of other latitudes, and recognizing the importance of a pluralistic, multicultural outlook in contemporary photography.
The entire exhibition series is realized through the collaboration of the Rifugio Digitale Association with Forma Edizioni and the Infoto Firenze Association and supported by Gruppo AF and Banca Ifigest.
