memories Cattani


few days ago I went to see the exhibition of Bruno Cattani "Memories" at Palazzo dei Principi in Correggio.

show are about 90 photographs of the artist reggiano focused on the theme of collective memory. Images are very "Po", related to our territory and just our imagination. Cattani said that it is the memory of the thin thread that inextricably links his work. There is a lot of nostalgia in his photos, set in an autumn ever made of reminiscences and regrets. It makes me think of places, especially inner described in "The World of Yesterday by Stefan Zweig, where the Hapsburg splendor of the universe did not remain that heaps of ashes.
images, in my opinion, the most evocative and interesting, are those that are unidentifiable spaces, which do not represent a specific place, but all the places in the world, abandoned and deserted. Just look where the most distant "memory" is nearer the dream, that's where the poetry of Cattani is stronger. They look like pictures of the post-atomic, where man has gone missing and there are only things to tell what it was.
I think the title "Memories" undermine the very work of the photographer and the declines too a mere sense of melancholic nostalgia. The show is really worth to be seen without being distracted by the title.
