Alcune Nature Morte or the Game of Life Martha Ronk

Poetry. Art. Photography. Collaboration between Italian photographer Gianluca Muratori and American poet Martha Ronk. Various styles of photography, at first extremely formal, classic, then to deconstruction tending toward the abstract, which lends to an exploration of studium (the rational aspect) and punctum (the emotional aspect); and thus the precarious equilibrium of the two helps with reading the images. The collaboration rests on the premise that juxtaposition illuminates, complicates, and energizes both the written word and the photograph.
