Ulysses - Scenes and behind the scenes of an Italian blockbuster. Original vintage photos
​
Curated by Matteo Giacomelli
The exhibition Ulysses - Scenes and behind the scenes of an Italian blockbuster presents 30 rare original vintage photos of the first Italian post-war blockbuster, 70 years after its release in 1954, in the studio-gallery Spazio e Immagini in Bologna.
It is a cross-reading of the film through the language of photojournalism and stage photography. Both traditional stage photographs and shots taken behind the scenes of the film are on display, giving us unexpected moments of leisure and private life. The actors of the myth are thus photographed in confidential and light-hearted atmospheres without neglecting the moments necessary for preparing the costumes and hairstyles of the stars.

AUTOARCHITHERAPY. Architectural Thoughts/Drawings by Ugo La Pietra 1963 - 1990
​
Curated by Matteo Giacomelli
The exhibition AUTOARCHITHERAPY. Architectural Thoughts/Drawings by Ugo La Pietra 1963 - 1990 presents, in Spazio e Immagini studio gallery based in Bologna, 22 architectural drawings by the author which cover a time span of approximately 30 years and which reflect his ongoing practice up to the present day.
This is an in-depth investigation into the drawing practice of Ugo La Pietra, a radical architect and artist, starting from his debut in the early sixties up to his maturity in the nineties of the twentieth century.
In this broad period of time, drawing, experienced by the author as an essential act of making architecture, proceeds without interruption with thought, engaging in a continuous progression of themes over the decades. These are drawings and sketches, which it would be right to define as croquis, that is, models executed on a smaller scale than the work with a minimum number of strokes left in ink on paper.
