Trophy and treasure

Francesco Neri, born in 1982 in Faenza, Northern Italy, opens a personal family album, a treasure chest filled with images that reflect life, its quiet and special, even magical moments, the change of generations as well as the questions of the photographer in relation to his medium. ln 2008, he moved into the apartment of his late grandparents where he encountered familiar rooms and objects, which he captured in photographic interiors and still lifes. They seem to sum up the course of time, and transform it, thereby challenging the way in which one's personal perception develops, or might be constantly changing. Exhibition: Die Photographische Sammlung / SK Stiftung Kultur, Cologne, Germany (01.09.2017-28.01.2018).
