MonumenTO, Torino Capitale. La forma della memoria (‘MonumenTO, Turin Capital. The Form of Memory’), is an exhibition project curated by Giovanni Carlo Federico Villa and Cristina Maritano in collaboration with the municipal administration. It arose from the combination of a need for critical reinterpretation and of a concrete opportunity: the extensive photographic campaign conducted by Giorgio Boschetti, which has given Turin’s monuments a new and unexpected presence. In his striking nighttime images, the statues emerge from the darkness as isolated figures, extracted from the urban noise and bustle of the city and restored to a close-up view, capable of capturing their expressions, postures and formal tensions. The work not only documents, therefore, but also reactivates, transforming the city into a veritable Theatre of Memory.
