From December 11, 2025 to January 23, 2026, the Alliance Française of Bologna hosts the photographic exhibition by Donata Cucchi, MariAperti – Au bord du vide.
The MariAperti are places where the opening up of nature makes it possible to reach a state of contemplation and mental silence. This experience—which the sea always seems to suggest—is in fact possible, with even greater intensity, in front of inland seas or expanses of sand, especially when they are seamlessly connected to the sea, as happens in the periodic and inexorable phenomenon of the rising and falling of the tide.
In the photographs, one can admire the astonishing tides of Normandy and Brittany, seen as moments in which nature confronts itself—the sea with the sand, the sand with the sky—while living beings appear distant, small, and transient.
