After a summer break, the exhibition "AI LIMITI DEL MONDO. Original vintage photos and documents from the Italian Mondo Movies '58 - '74" returns. It presents in the Spazio e Immagini studio-gallery in Bologna a selection of 30 rare original vintage photos of both sets and off-sets as well as a series of documents from the main Italian Mondo Movies.
This is a reconnaissance of the limits of vision played out between photography and film. The Mondo Movies, a cinematographic genre born in Italy in the 50s and 60s, halfway between documentary and investigative journalism, offer themselves as a privileged territory to sound out the limits of the represented image, touching on the themes of morality, lawfulness and verisimilitude that inflamed public opinion at the time and that remain, despite the years that have passed, extremely topical.
In this exhibition, the original vintage photos of Mondo Movies, beyond the authors who took them, are the real protagonists. Their content, sometimes carnal and sometimes cannibalistic, makes them bearers of truth and sheds light on the unknown, the hidden and the strange.
