Compagnia delle apparizioni
An archive of 60,000+ images is a heavyweight.
To honour the work, I have chosen to set it aside.
In this space, I present only five.
They are 'apparitions'msingular moments that have surfaced from decades of film and digital sensors.
They are here today, but like all apparitions, they are not meant to stay.
When these five vanish, they return to the archive, and five new ghosts will take their place.
There is no 'permanent collection.'
There is only what is visible now.
Scale of Change: The Giant in Venice
Scale of Change: The Giant in Venice
The Scene: A powerful documentary-style image contrasting the historic Venetian architecture with the overwhelming scale of a modern cruise liner. This piece captures a significant era of transition for the city's waterways.
Artist Note: A signature piece from Marco’s long-term documentation of Venetian life.
