"Linee di Energia" in Turin

The “Linee di energia” programme, organised by Intesa Sanpaolo, La Venaria Reale Conservation and Restoration Centre and the IGIIC Association, Gruppo Italiano International Institute for Conservation, is focused on the theme of conservation of photography.

Following the appointments held in 2021 and 2022, with remote interventions by leading figures and experts in the field, the programme will continue with a mixed conference format, with three meetings presenting content specifically focused on the analysis of case studies about photography archives and collections, from the point of view of the preservation, study and dissemination of the materials conserved in them, completed by a round table, on the morning of Friday 17 November, at the Gallerie d'Italia in Turin. The entire programme is coordinated by Sara Abram, Walter Guadagnini and Francesco Tedeschi, also curators of the previous exchange opportunities on the subject.

This year's focus is on the relationship between time and photography, both in the sense of recording and documenting a temporal phenomenon, and with regard to the commitment to the preservation and the conveying of images to the future.

The first three moments will involve the participation of conservators and scholars who will present specific cases selected within the following topics: Preservation and use of photographic archives; Photography as a record of art; Photography as a work of art.
