L’ORDINE DELLE COSE

Giorgio De Vecchi investigates the relationship between container and content and the ambiguities it can generate.

The project proposes a sequence of images that help to understand the importance of conservation, archiving and research, as well as the need to question permanently the meaning of our historical heritage, which also involves institutions and the public in asking how and for what purposes to use this huge amount of material.

Consistently with this assumption, this sequence of images creates a visual pathway – deliberately lacking a reading and interpretation order – which moves autonomously following a subjective path of the author.
