Spring of photography in Sirmione
A season full of initiatives opens in Sirmione for photography and Lake Garda lovers
The red thread that links Sirmione to the world of photography leads us to a season full of interesting events.
Spring with its fresh colors, unique moods and a reborn landscape will be the backdrop to a series of important projects and events that the Municipality promotes in the name of a long and important tradition that links Sirmione to the world of photography.
It is a simple recipe, where local ingredients make the real difference: all projects and initiatives are built and designed specifically for Sirmione and bear the unmistakable sign of our territory and the spirit of its places.
Important names, great interpreters and photography lovers will unleash their creativity by weaving a dialogue with our territory, starting with Elliott Erwitt with his very famous DOGDOGS exhibition open at Palazzo Callas Exhibitions and Jacob and Sara Aue Sobol of Magnum Photos who will hold a workshop on the theme: “capturing the poetry of everyday life in Sirmione”.
