\nKalvar’s photographs exhibited in the exhibition focus on the gestures and hands of Italians, which the photographer began shooting on the occasion of his first visit to Italy in 1978. Arriving in Rome, he immediately understood that he had arrived in a real paradise for photography: “I understood that I was in the land of perpetual human interaction, expressed not only with the voice but with the mouth, cheeks, eyes, eyebrows, forehead, hands (hands!) – in short, all the body”.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
