Started in 1978, the Pavesi Fine Arts Gallery takes part for the first time this year to MIA Fair, presenting a collection of photos by Renzo Tortelli, who has been recently honor awarded by FIAF – Federazione Italiana Associazioni Fotografiche. Tortelli’s photos tell the story off a magic place, Scanno, in which time seems to have stopped at the beginning of the century: Tortelli chose black and white to tell us this story made by the contrast between the dazzling white of the streets and the people dressed in black, women dressed with dark clothes and men with their black cloaks. The Pavesi Fine Arts Gallery specialized in a talent scout for European and American artists sensitive to social aspects and to the constant change of the reality, called “the ever-changing urban landscape”. The Gallery also focuses its attention to street art and photography: the intent is to combine different forms of art – music, painting, photography – in order to communicate a heterogeneous vision of life, filtered by the sensitivity of each artist.
Renzo Tortelli was born in Potenza Picena in 1926. He developed his interest for photography early, and his passion has brought him to be showed in several Italian galleries and all over the world. In 2011 his home town made possible the publication of his solo show » Di Terra e di Gente », which is a collection of his work, from Scanno, Piccolo Mondo, Agreste e Gente di Parigi.
