About Alessandro Passerini

 
 
  • Biography

    I am a Fragment of Consciousness that usually thinks like a Mountain.

    I document natural and urban landscapes by researching the emotional aspect of the environments and developing photographic projects with different performers to investigate their work or to integrate it into site specific projects.

    My photographs are exhibited and are present in private collections in Italy, Switzerland, Austria, France, Belgium, UK, USA, Canada, Turkey, in the Vancouver Stock Exchange Hotel chain and on the fleet of the Holland America Line.

    Dates: 5 May 2017 - 9 Jul 2017

    Venue: Fotografia Europea, Reggio Emilia (IT)

    The Po River Delta has always been an ever-changing territory.

    In a short time, only the memory of a life made up of work and everyday life now belonging to the last century remains.

    I was born here.

    When my father died, I wanted to investigate his life in these lands where water marked time.

    Starting from the silo in which he was born, I encountered a still living memory, and in the house that once belonged to 'the Agnes who is going to die', now submerged, I found my father.

    Event: National Geographic - FOOD: Our Global Kitchen

    Dates: 16 Oct 2014 - 22 Feb 2015

    Venue: American Museum of Natural History, New York

    National Geographic's exhibit FOOD: Our Global Kitchen, put into context the difficult questions facing countries, communities, and families regarding the future of food. The exhibit showcased the history of food, food traditions around the world, the economics of food, how food is cooked and many other important categories and themes. What intrigued us the most, was how the problem of feeding the growing world population is so dynamic that possible solutions demand cooperation between often disparate entities. When one combines the facts that in the United States more than 30 percent of our food is wasted with the truth that there is enough food currently being produced to feed the entire world population, it makes us think about what we can do to reduce our daily waste. We often talk about plastic waste, but food waste is an important reality as well. The FOOD: Our Global Kitchen exhibit reminded us of that important truth and highlighted the need to find ways to take steps in conser
