Il gioco di nessuno
La forma biennale tra Venezia e Parigi nella fotografia del dopoguerra fino agli anni Ottanta
abstract
The purpose of this article is to start mapping the trajectories of artistic dispositives, exhibiting formats and reciprocal cultural influences across Europe since its economic and political foundation in the 1950s, and up until the 1980s. Lines are drawn between Venice and Paris, two of the most visually identified cities on the continent, to explore the contribution given by photography and Biennales towards a European self-representation.
