From March to June 2015 the Casa del Boia hosts “Video ergo sum”, the exhibition curated by Alessandro Romanini.
Ranging from documentaries, discussions and interviews, a number of award-winning international video productions will explore a variety of art forms: “from photography to painting, architecture to design, sculpture and installation, without overlooking performance and dance”, explains Romanini.
There will be talks on the evolution of photography, from instrument to artistic expression, from the second half of the 1960s, that has given rise to the amazing phenomenon of video art.
