Guido Guidi. Col tempo, 1956–2024 | LE BAL
Viasaterna is pleased to announce the exhibition Guido Guidi. Col Tempo, 1956–2024, curated by Simona Antonacci, Pippo Ciorra, and Antonello Frongia. The exhibition was conceived and produced by the MAXXI Museo nazionale delle arti del XXI secolo in collaboration with LE BAL and the Archivio Guido Guidi.
LE BAL pays tribute to Guido Guidi, a key figure in European photography. Since the 1960s, his reflection on the language of images has given rise to one of the most significant poetics of vision of our time, presented for the first time at LE BAL through eighteen photographic sequences conceived by the artist in collaboration with the MAXXI Museo nazionale delle arti del XXI secolo.
The photographic sequences on display unfold as a continuous line of more than two hundred images. They trace the entirety of Guidi’s work, from his black-and-white experiments of the 1960s and 1970s to his later research on landscape and architecture, up to his most recent projects. Notebooks, manuscripts, maquettes, and previously unseen documents shed light on aspects of his method. Structured by the photographs and the intervals that separate them, the exhibition path, through its rigor and the subtlety of its variations, invites us into the photographic heart of Guidi’s thought, into its artistic density and the beauty of its journey.
