Harper’s Bazaar Italia brings Juergen Teller to Venice with the «Sono

Harper’s Bazaar Italia marks the Biennale with Juergen Teller

For the opening of the 61st Venice Art Biennale, Harper’s Bazaar Italia devoted its May issue to "Art in Photography" and extended the editorial project into a physical exhibition. The "Sono qui" exhibition by Juergen Teller is hosted at Palazzo Diedo in the Cannaregio district and presents a photographic narrative of Venice through the photographer’s candid and human visual language.

The project functions as a tangible extension of the magazine issue: images published on the pages are reconfigured into an installation to create an immersive experience that merges editorial work, contemporary photography and artistic installation. The magazine acts as a "Paper Pavilion."

The issue features three prominent photographic voices — Paolo Roversi, Juergen Teller and the duo Inez & Vinoodh — engaging with the idea of exhibition both as a physical meeting place and the original photographic gesture when light fixes an image on a surface.

• Exhibition title: "Sono qui"
• Artist: Juergen Teller
• Venue: Palazzo Diedo, Cannaregio, Venice
• Context: editorial extension of Harper’s Bazaar Italia’s May issue focused on photography

This operation reasserts the paper magazine as a cultural object and experimental space: pages become a narrative device and a place of encounter between fashion, image and contemporary art. Venice acts as a creative laboratory where photography and installation build physical experiences within the Biennale framework.
