Vincenzo Pagliuca was born in Italy in 1980. His photographic artistic intention is to express the personal perception of places he finds extraordinary, especially bringing the attention to rural and suburban Italian locations. With certain places, he establishes a connection over time, a long-term dialogue from which a strongly internalized vision of landscapes and architectures springs.
His work has been featured in museums and festivals such as: Copenhagen Photo Festival, Darmstädter Tage der Fotografie, Centro Italiano della Fotografia d’Autore (Bibbiena), Arcos Museum (Benevento), Galleria del Cembalo (Rome), Villa Pignatelli – Casa della Fotografia and MADRE Museum (Naples), Ulster Museum (Belfast). From 2015 to 2017 he has been member of Lab \ per un laboratiorio irregolare. In 2020 it is published his first photobook ‘Napoli Nord • Case Rom’ by The Velvet Cell.
About ‘Mónos’ – words by Vincenzo Pagliuca:
Solitary houses along the Italian Southern Apennine stand out against the natural environment as monoliths. They are singular and magnetic architectures, photographed in the wintertime under particular light conditions; but not only: they are also places of dreams and meditations, which invite us to reflect on the symbolic meaning of the house for human beings.
