EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we are transported back in time to the 1950s at the Venice Biennale, where art and architecture converge. The focal point of the image is the Pavilion of Venezuela, a masterpiece designed by renowned architect Carlo Scarpa. With its sleek lines and modernist aesthetic, it stands as a testament to Scarpa's genius. But what truly makes this photo special is the play of reflections in the glass that reveals two figures: photographer Ferruccio Leiss and architect Carlo Scarpa himself. Their presence adds an intriguing layer to the composition, blurring the line between subject and observer. Leiss, holding his camera with utmost concentration, captures not only a physical representation of architectural brilliance but also a glimpse into their creative minds. Through his lens, he immortalizes both Scarpa's vision brought to life and his own artistic prowess. The Venice Biennale serves as an ideal backdrop for such an encounter between these two masters of their crafts. This international fair celebrates art in all its forms – from paintings to sculptures – creating a platform for artists like Scarpa to showcase their work on a global stage. As we delve deeper into this photograph by Ferruccio Leiss from Alinari archives, we are reminded of how photography can capture more than just images; it can encapsulate moments frozen in time. It allows us to witness history unfolding before our eyes while providing insight into the personalities behind iconic structures like the Pavilion of Venezuela. This print serves as both documentation and artwork itself – bridging together architecture, photography, and human connection within one frame.
