Stories will showcase the diverse work of renowned fashion photographer, Paolo Roversi. From high-fashion shots to nude portraits and still-lives, the work will be showcased across the 9 rooms of the Prince’s Apartments at the Palazzo Reale – each room reflecting a different facet of his work from the introspective and the unknown to his familiar high fashion work.

Born in 1947 in Raenna, Italy, Roversi’s work came to prominence in the 1980s when the fashion industry was responsive to, and encouraging of, highly creative personal work. His highly aesthetic photographs are characterised by a trademark exquisite use of light, shadow and texture. Roversi will often cite a quote from photographer Nadar in interviews:

“The technique of photography is very simple; it can be learnt fairly quickly, even a child can take a photograph. What cannot be taught is the feeling for light (‘le sentiment de la lumière’).”

It is this ineffable ‘feeling for light’ that has defined Roversi’s entire artistic career and the aesthetic is evident through all his work. Paying careful attention to the photographic process, Roversi’s early experiments with the large-format polaroid became the foundation for his signature style. The unique quality of polaroid photography is preserved throughout his work to the present day.

Roversi’s work has been the subject of nearly 20 international solo exhibitions and his work has been published in 9 monographs.
