As a member of Shoot4Change I'm glad to know that I'll exhibit my work "Burned" in Reggio Emilia (Italy) from May 9 to June 24.

After the success achieved in Rome in the prestigious Palazzo Valentini, the itinerant exhibition 100 click 4 Change, curated by pianoBI, will soon move to Reggio Emilia in time for the European Photo Festival held from May 9 to June 24 of this year.
Once again at the center of the attention will be the 100 most remarkable photos of Shoot4Change, the international network of voluntary photographers founded by Antonio Amendola to raise public awareness on social issues, by bringing back to light facts and stories - horrible or marvelous – that happen in the forgotten places of the world.

After Rome and Reggio Emilia, next stops of the Shoot4Change exhibitions will be New York and Rome again.

I hope to see you there on May 9th at 19.00 for the inauguration!!!

Here the address:
Chiostri della Ghiara – Reggio Emilia Via Guasco 6
From 10/05/2012 to 24/06/2012
From monday to sunday: 10.00 - 24.00 - free entry.

Beyond Assignment

jeriko1kenobi — Tue, 07 Jun 2011 12:32:58 +0000

Beyond Assignment is a documentary produced by The Knight Center for International Media at the University of Miami, which explores the approach of three female photojournalists (Adriana Zehbrauskas, Gali Tibbon andMariella Furrer. covering Mexico, Israel and South Africa.

From the documentary's website:

"Their three journeys dramatize the fervent curiosity and determination needed to perform difficult and often dangerous jobs as visual storytellers. BEYOND ASSIGNMENT examines the artistic and ethical responsibilities inherent in capturing vital subject matter and the subsequent emotional cost to journalists and their subjects."

The documentary's trailer starts with Adriana Zehbrauskas photographing adherents of La Santa Muerte in Mexico City. Adriana is planning to show the documentary at the Foundry Photojournalism Workshop in Buenos Aires. I am look forward to see it, and I'm sure it'll be very well received.

Democracia Real Protests in Madrid

Madrid, Spain - Thousands of people have massed in city centres across the country in a swelling movement, a so-called “Spanish Revolution” that began on May 15th.

In Madrid, people are taking over its famous landmark Puerta del Sol, calling for “real democracy” and improved living standards.

In this case, I decided it would be a good idea to create a photo series on this subject only by using the Instagram iPhone application, as it all started through twitter and facebook.

Such a great concept. It's called WVIL system and takes the connectivity and application platform capabilities of today's smart phones and wirelessly connects them with interchangeable full SLR-quality optics. Just amazing!
