THE PARENTESI
The legacy of Luigi Ghirri
Author of some of the most iconic shots in the recent history of our country, interpreter of the architecture and landscape with his gaze, Luigi Ghirri has left a mark in the figurative culture of the ’70 and ‘80. An artistic legacy that fascinates scholars and amateurs of photography, kept by the “Luigi Ghirri” Archive at the Library Panizzi of Reggio Emilia.
The house in Roncocesi
Adele Ghirri, one of the photographer's two daughters, committed to the protection and promotion of his artistic work, will welcome you to Luigi Ghirri's house in Roncocesi, accompanying you on a guided tour through unpublished materials, photo books, documents and volumes of the library.
Ghirri at the Civic Museums
The encounter with Ghirri's work then continues inside the halls of the Civic Museums of Reggio Emilia, where a permanent section is dedicated to the photographer from Scandiano, with rotating exhibitions of his artistic production.
