“Snapshots of History”: 'Thresholds' at MEIS

The National Museum of Italian Judaism and the Shoah (MEIS) in Ferrara continues the Snapshots of History series, focusing on photographic masters and contemporary projects that investigate memory and social change.

The next event takes place at the MEIS bookshop (via Piangipane 81, Ferrara) at 17:00, featuring photographers Silvio Wolf and Alberto Jona Falco, who will preview their project titled Thresholds.

About the project

Thresholds is a two-voice project exploring the genesis of an artistic work: from flat photographic images the authors create an experiential environment that links past and present, here and elsewhere, examining the threshold as a space of temporal and symbolic coexistence.

• Silvio Wolf: artist known for site-specific installations and lens-based art aimed at producing simultaneous perceptions of past and present. Born in Milan in 1952, he studied Philosophy, Psychology and Visual Arts and has exhibited internationally.
• Alberto Jona Falco: photographer, art director and educator, owner of Studio Olimpic; author of a comprehensive photographic archive on Jewish Italy and active in projects combining visual research and cultural interpretation.
