Gabriella Cardazzo / Il Tempo del Cavallino
An enthralling and evocative narration through images that, over time, Gabriella Cardazzo has been able to capture on film - with the attentive eye of one who knows how to move in the backstage of art in a sensitive and discreet manner - bearing witness to the incessant and dynamic activity of the historic Galleria del Cavallino in Venice, directed together with her brother Paolo since 1966, after the untimely death of their father Carlo in 1963.
Like pieces of a mosaic in the making, the flow of her photographs, always rigorously in black and white (now part of the vast "Cardazzo Fund" donated to the Cini Foundation Archives), gives back here, in these pages, intense moments of creativity through the expressive faces of the many extraordinary artists of various nationalities who, over a period of more than thirty years, exhibited at what was undoubtedly one of the Italian galleries of reference for contemporary art, consecrating it as a true international laboratory of fertile experimentation, dialogue, confrontation, debate, promotion and development of new artistic forms, in which space was consistently given not only to the names of the "great masters," but also, above all, to the new generations of emerging artists, with a vision that was always very open and extremely eclectic towards every kind of creative expression.
Introduction by Luca Massimo Barbero. 144 pages, full color, black and white photos, published in 2021; 23 x 22,5 cm, published in italian.
