Inspired by the slave’s quote in Voltaire's chef-d’œuvre Candide
"that's the price you eat sugar in Europe", this exhibition of
photographs brings together the works of Giorgio Negro and Tommaso
Protti. The humanist and surrealist photography of the first completes
the photo-journalistic frontality of the second.
In line with
Voltaire's denunciation of a slavery system through Eduardo Galeano's
Latin American manifesto The open veins of Latin America, the works of
these two Italian photographers are a testimony of the limits of a system that
does not learn from its own mistakes.
Protti received the 10th Carmignac Prize for this project and Negro was selected at Festival du Regard in 2020 for this work.
