Casa dei Tre Oci
Fulvio Roiter – Photographs 1948-2007
At the Casa dei Tre Oci, Fulvio Roiter – Photographs 1948-2007, curated by Denis Curti, until August 26, is the first retrospective of the great photographer’s work since his death in 2016. Two hundred photographs, vintage for the most part, recount the artistic path of the Venetian photographer.  Promoted by the Fondazione di Venezia, in partnership with the City of Venice, the show ranges over the whole of his career, and is the most complete monographic show ever to be devoted to the artist. This is a tribute and a memento that the Casa dei Tre Oci has dedicated to the photographer who, more than any other, has conjoined the image of Venice to his name.

Venice in Black and White
A Self Portrait
The heart and soul of Fulvio Roiter's work was Venice, the city that first invited his eyes to look through a viewfinder in order to bring to light what nobody had seen before. A magical city overflowing with history, the set for a film that had never been released but that soon everyone would want to see by walking along the alleys by the lagoon. His photos had the power of a megaphone and managed to connect the city to the world. In fact, Venice was the research field where Roiter discovered his artistic identity, precisely at the time when the city was being reborn through unusual and attractive images, through photographs that allowed the whole world to get to know its poetry and enchantment.

“The historical idea of Venice was formed and developed in this way even at a political level, from the times of the Most Serene Republic, above all through images that referred to and made known the power of its beauty”.
