A two-week residency on Lake Garda to develop a photographic project in full autonomy<\/em><\/p>\n

The Sirmione Photo Residency<\/strong> is looking for talented photographers capable, with their sensitivity and skill, of revealing an unpublished image of Sirmione, discovering hidden and unexplored aspects.<\/span><\/span> They must also be willing to be contaminated by an extraordinary place, full of history, nature and culture<\/strong>, capable of enriching the way we look at the world<\/strong>.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The selections for the third edition of the Sirmione Photo Residency<\/strong> are open: the selected artist will spend two weeks on the shores of Lake Garda to develop a photographic project dedicated to the fascinating area of Sirmione, an invitation to transform suggestions and inspirations into tangible and<\/span><\/span> significant.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/div>\n
\n

The initiative, now in its third edition this year, was born from the desire of the Sirmione Municipality<\/strong> to see its city in a new light: through the lens of photographers capable of producing an authentic and innovative representation of the territory and its community.<\/span><\/span> The Sirmione Photo Residency<\/strong>, which has registered an interest and response above expectations since the first edition, launches the XV Edition of the Sirmione Award for Photography<\/a><\/strong>, made up of 5 different competitions<\/strong>.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The peculiarity of the Sirmione Photo Residency<\/strong> lies in the great freedom granted to participants to conceive, propose and carry out their own photographic project, letting themselves be inspired by Sirmione and its territory.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
Two prestigious international photography experts will select the photographers and guide them in the realization of the project: Andr\u00e9a Holzherr<\/strong><\/a>, Global Cultural Director of Magnum Photos, and Ludovica Pellegatta<\/strong><\/a>, Partnerships Director of Magnum Photos.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

After the presentation of CUSTODI<\/a><\/strong>, the book by Davide Greco<\/strong>, protagonist of the first edition of the Sirmione Photo Residency, Simona Ghizzoni<\/strong>, the protagonist of the second edition<\/a> has already been photographing in Sirmione and is working on her project which will be presented at the end of the summer<\/span><\/span> 2024 and which will materialize in the creation of the second photographic book of the Sirmione Photo Residency<\/strong>.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We present in this gallery some preview images of Simona Ghizzoni<\/strong>‘s project: her work takes inspiration from the link between human beings and the environment through the rediscovery of the historical and mythical roots of the territory.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/div>\n
Thus the Roman photographer: “[…] The design idea for Sirmione Photo Residency fits into this framework. Lake Garda is a precious treasure chest of legends and traditions linked to water: Sirmione is, etymologically, the refuge on<\/em><\/span><\/span> ‘water; the relationship between the nature of the territory and its inhabitants is a fundamental part of this investigation.”<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/div>\n
