Since the day our group came together under the name of CESURA, the people who believed in our project and mission made a huge difference helping us reach our goals. With the SUPPORT US campaign we ask for your help to directly support our projects, our independent publishing house and our Lab. Choose among three available memberships and look out for our first collaboration with artist Paolo Ventura who handcrafted and gifted us with a poster inspired by our motto: NEVER NEVER NEVER GIVE UP
“All the things that seemed so important” is my new series selected among the winners of Refocus 2, an open call about post-pandemic stories.
The series is about the long summer days of a group of kids who, after months spent at home, decided to get together to build a secret shed along the shores of a creek. This place became a barrier between them and the world of others, a place where they could be themselves or just spend time alone. Confined in the place of their choice, they spend a few weeks there until, as in any adolescent fire, the flame of interest cools to move to other places, situations and adventures.
Thanks Creatività Contemporanea Mibact, Mufoco and Triennale Milano.
I’m very happy to be among the winners of REFOCUS #2 Open Call that selected 20 post-lockdown photography works. More here.
Cesura Publish joins Virtual Tokyo Art Book Fair, don’t miss the chance to get a copy of Head of the Lion, our new Zine, the new Il Corpo del Capitano or some old rarities as Andante, Found Photos in Detroit or Russian Interiors. Can’t wait for fairs to be “real” again. I miss travelling with books a lot. In the meanwhile take a look HERE.
