Exhibition RES. Lo stato delle cose (The state of things) Photographs by Antonio Biasiucci 24.3.-29.5.2004 Galleria Gottardo is continuing the research into photography that it began more than ten years ago: from the classic works of Frank, Lartigue and Penn to more contemporary photographers. The exhibition of the works of Antonio Biasiucci is titled RES.Lo stato delle cose. It is one in a long line of exhibitions on contemporary Italian photography that Galleria Gottardo has shown since it first opened its doors. The exhibitions over the years have shown the most important and interesting of Italian photographers. “The photography of Biasiucci is an ambiguous art, as is all art that has to do with appearance, appearance that translates the corporeality of the real into a fantasy imprisoned by a scale of perceptions that goes from the blinding white of lightning to the black of the depths of night, to the protection of matter that absorbs all light …..”, writes Giuseppe Montesano.
