From 4th April until 28th June 2024, 29 ARTS IN PROGRESS gallery is proud to present the works of photographer Gabriele Micalizzi, for the first time in Milan.

The exhibition, called “A KIND OF BEAUTY”, curated by Tiziana Castelluzzo, brings together the finest photographs, ranging from black and white prints to gelatin silver prints and colour, painstakingly selected from negatives preserved in the artist’s archive.

On display are the most significant shots depicting some of the venues of the biggest clashes of the last two decades, starting from the Arab revolutions, passing through the conflicts in the Middle Eastern against the caliphate through to the current conflicts in the Ukraine and Palestine.

The desire to embark on a journey towards a type of photography resulting from a documentary need, but containing its own aesthetics and meaning that goes beyond the reason for its inception, derives from a precise positioning choice reached throughout the gallery’s many years of experience in making space for new visions and fragments of reality that have marked the history of the last twenty years.

The exhibition will open to the public on Thursday, 4th April 2024 at the gallery in Via San Vittore 13 in Milan.
