Casa dei Tre Oci, public exhibition venue in Venice especially dedicated to photography, is proud to present the exhibition 'Tre Oci Tre Mostre'.
On the ground floor, 'Private looks'. Photographs by Francesco Maria Colombo. Sixty portraits, between black & white and color. They are actors, philosophers, musicians, writers and scientists, all caught in its own context, free to choose the environment and attributes of their representation. For them, the scene is repeated each time with a different input, although always dictated by the intention of the author to fully understand his chosen subject. Then even the characters more shy and reticent can be expressed in the poses the most authentic. As a result, the photograph reaches that ideal of representation that preserves the bottom of the eye and the heart.
In the halls of the first floor, 'Venetian galleries and Photography'. As part of the show, the Casa dei Tre Oci has chosen to host 6 Venetian galleries that always operate in the field of photography.

On the second floor, three exhibitions curated by Photography Club La Gondola. 'The Remains of the Day' is the theme taken on this year by 31 members of the Club. The key is what remains as a personal memory formed not by the main events of a lifetime but the small details, a kind of intimate evocation, so that the viewer becomes a participant.
One room is dedicated to the winners of the reading portfolio called Decisive moments, which was held in January 2014 at the Casa dei Tre Oci.
Finally, a retrospective: Positive Italy by Stefano Robino. Photographs 1951-1969, the reporter made famous by photo projects dedicated to the work environment, as FIAT Grandi Motori.
