About the Book
Aurelio Amendola's digital photography of iconic sculptures, offering an immersive experience of Buonarrotiani masterpieces. Accompanies 'The Primacy of Informal' exhibition held at Rifugio Digitale in Italy from 13 November 2024 to 5 January 2025.
In a completely unexpected way, Aurelio Amendola, a world-renowned photographer, goes beyond his consolidated practice of printing on paper to take up the challenge of the contemporary medium par excellence, digital, exhibiting his shots dedicated to Michelangelo on the screens of Rifugio Digitale. The gallery that hosted the exhibition draws its identity from its origin: an anti-aircraft bunker built in Florence during the Second World War to protect the neighborhood from bombing. The redevelopment of the tunnel has given rise to a space that welcomes artistic expressions of all kinds, with a strong look towards the future and a strong predilection for everything that moves in the digital field.
Antonio Natali, together with the photographer from Pistoia, selected these images, curating the exhibition and the volume, inviting us to pay attention to something completely different from the canonical iconography to which we are accustomed. In fact, we are presented with an iconic Michelangelo.
