Exibition Opening - Emotions from Pisa by Stefano Pasqualetti

"...Stefano Pasqualetti shows us the Pisa that we know and above all a Pisa that we never noticed. ...This collection of photographs also demonstrate how archi- tecture, through its forms and its surfaces, can evoke emotions that are constantly changing, as sun and seasons take their daily and yearly paths."

Howard Burns


On the one hand, this photographic collection could engage the keen observer with a journey through the city which is as common as it is unusual, on the other hand, it could attract the attention of the absent-minded. Or more. With a camera always in hand the result is always the same: strike down there, straight into the deep. First themselves, in that thousandth of a second that opens and closes the shutter. And then, others. One must, indeed, be just there, in that place and at that time to take a picture, and how can one define the act of being in THAT particular place, and at just THAT particular time? Pure coincidence.


This, at Casa Italiana Zerilli-Marimò at NYU,  is his first solo photos’s exibition
