UC s Reed Gallery Presents Exhibit on Naples, Italy
The University of Cincinnatis Dorothy W. and C. Lawson Reed Jr. Gallery is presenting Napoli Senza Titiolo: Naples Untitled, a photographic exhibition exploring the relationship between Naples and its public spaces. The exhibit runs
Nov. 7-Dec. 9, 2011
, and is free and open to the public.
Naples is a city of extremes. Famous for its beauty and creative spirit, it's also associated with environmental degradation and political corruption.
This exhibit presents a look at Naples of the last 40 years, showing the variety of ways in which the city has responded to challenges and offering a narrative of the city that incorporates the many facets of its character, including the ability to provide people with a sense of belonging.
The exhibition is called Naples Untitled because Naples is a city in flux, living between its hopes for a better future and fears of further decline. Similarly, the photographs on display have been left untitled in order to leave viewers free to experience the images in a personal way since titles inevitably determine interpretation and limit the communicative power of images.
Napoli Senza Titiolo: Naples Untitled runs from Nov. 7-Dec. 9. Hours for the Reed Gallery, which is free and open to the public, are Sunday through Thursday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m.
For more information, call the gallery at 513-556-2839.
