The photographic exhibition #impresecheresistono – Artisans vs Covid-19, the lockdown in Turin in April 2020 – Faces and stories of an Italy that does not give up, is set up in the spaces of Collegio Artigianelli, in corso Palestro 14. The initiative promoted by Cna Torino, and supported by the Turin Chamber of commerce, wants to be a message of positivity for the Made in Italy and the young artisans of the future.
30 shots, taken by Virgilio Ardy, illustrate the faces and the suspended spaces of laboratories, offices and working environments of as many artisans and entrepreneurs from Turin in the difficult weeks between April and May 2020. Men and women who, despite everything, did not give up and reopened their activities, after the forced hiatus, with greater determination than before.
The #imprecheresistono project also includes the creation of a docu-film to be released in May, shot partly in the company’s locations, partly in the Artigianelli theater, Le Musichall.
The photographic exhibition will be open until the end of May 2021 with free admission.
