This project was born with the aim of giving an editorial output to earthquakes, a photography project developed by Igor Londero (2016-2020): “In May 1976, a strong earthquake destroyed a large area of Friuli, in the north-east of Italy. At the time my father lived in Buja, a small town near the epicenter of the earthquake and was 25 years-old. Forty years later, what was born out of those ruins? What is the identity and landscape of “postearthquake generation”? Forty years later, what was born out of those ruins? What is the identity and landscape of “post-earthquake generation”? Can the echo of a catastrophic event that radically changed the history and landscape of a territory have visible repercussions on generations who did not experience the event, but only created the enviroment later on? How long can the effects of a disastrous event last through time and culture?" igorlondero.weebly.com/earthquakes.html |
