The magnificent Palazzo Fontanelli Ceretti provides a sophisticated backdrop for [RE] EXIST, an evocative evening dedicated to the power of contemporary photojournalism. Set within an intentionally informal and intimate atmosphere, the event offers a rare opportunity for a personal encounter with one of the most compelling voices in modern documentary photography: Erik Messori. A key member of the CAPTA collective, Messori will guide guests through the profound narratives and hidden histories that lie behind his most impactful shots. This is not merely a presentation, but a dialogue—a chance to explore the technical and emotional grit of a photojournalist’s life while enjoying a curated vegetarian “aperi-dinner” in one of the city’s most storied locations. The evening’s proceedings will be moderated by Massimiliano Panarari, whose insights will help contextualise Messori’s work within the broader landscape of information and visual storytelling. The discussion will culminate in a dedicated screening, allowing the audience to fully immerse themselves in the visual world of a photographer who has made documenting reality his life’s mission.
