Bologna Fotografata. People, places, photographers.

The city remains the same, Bologna, as do the years we traverse, however, the story being told by this new exhibition is different.

A new story told through portraits, newspaper photographs, advertising images, police files, family albums... in the belief that each document could add a small but significant part to the history of Bologna.

A very special attention has been given to the photographers who, through a vast range of tastes, skills and motivations, created this immense archive of the city.

Therefore, we have entrusted them with the task of suggesting the reasons and the methods that led them to choose which Bologna to photograph and how to go about doing so.
