“Interpreting Landscapes. Another Italy” by Giulio D’Ercole in Todi

Opening: Friday, 29 May, 18:30. Venue: ArtEX Workshop Gallery, Nido dell’Aquila, Todi.

The gallery hosts the photographic exhibition Interpreting Landscapes. Another Italy, curated by Diana Daneluz. The show features forty large-format photographs that examine landscapes across four Italian regions — Trentino-Alto Adige, Tuscany, Umbria and Puglia — aiming to move beyond tourist clichés and to reveal the complexity and latent tension of these places.

D’Ercole’s images avoid postcard views: they trace intimate atmospheres, capture light and air qualities that already tell a story before the shutter clicks, and wait for the moment when the landscape discloses itself fully.

• Exhibition period: from 29 May to 14 June
• Visiting days and hours: Friday, Saturday and Sunday, 11:00–13:00 and 17:00–19:00
• Admission: free
• Curator: Diana Daneluz
• Works on display: 40 large-format photographs
