Francesco Jodice : Panorama

Francesco Jodice
Panorama is the first international retrospective dedicated to the Italian photographer and filmmaker, Francesco Jodice (*1967), spanning 20 years of the artist’s work. In Panorama, places, times and stories collide, addressing sociological questions about our urban world. By presenting a wide range of documents like maps, books, newspaper clippings and interviews, the show also gives a behind-the-scenes look at Jodice’s artistic process that strikes a fine balance between theory and practice. Panorama presents a contemporary geopolitical scenario and an eclectic mosaic of a world in flux.
