Fluid, elusive, powerful and fleeting: this is how we could define the images that pervade our existence. We are the creators of this kaleidoscopic world of shapes and colors, and many times we do it through photography, a language with which we give shape to contemporary and private themes. A broad and varied language for which it is the spokesperson Liquida Photofestival, directed by the curator Laura Totawhich opens its third edition in the month of photography in Turin under the banner of rebirth with the theme Rebirth, hosted until May 5th Horsewoman Complex.

A total of 29 authors have been selected for the new edition of the Turin contemporary photography festival, including emerging and established ones. The shots show the public the different meanings that the word “rebirth” can take on, moving from the social sphere to the cultural one, and then reaching the private one. Snippets of reality come to life through the photographs of Paola Francesca Barone, Luca Daddario, Carlodemarchis, Gloria Fenaroli, Ottavia Franchina and Filippo Zanella, to name a few. The Austrian photographer joins them Peter Pflügler, protagonist of the Liquida Grant section with the project Now Is Not The Right Timewhose installation was designed through the workshop led by Andrea Isola Exhibition Designer, involving 11 students.

Liquida Photofestival 2024 in Turin. Word to the artistic director Laura Tota
“The theme chosen each year is a consequence of the state our contemporary world finds itself in”, he explained in a recent interview with Artribune director Laura Tota. “After Better days will come, last year’s theme, I tried to give conceptual continuity, focusing on the concept of Rebirth as a consequence of an internal and social healing process. All the authors called to participate have in some way provided their own interpretation of the theme through their works, from the guests of the Main exhibition to the winners of the Liquida Grant prizes”
