Mattia Balsamini (Friuli Venezia Giulia Fotografia Award 2017 for a regional photographer) July 1 – September 3
Palazzo Tadea, Spilimbergo


Mattia Balsamini was born in Pordenone in 1987. He have lived in Los Angeles where he worked as David La Chapelle' s assistant and met the biggest international photographers. Now he is back in Italy and he is beginning its own activity. It is interesting to see on his website the backstage of his most exceptional photos where one can see the stylistic touch of his mentor but on his own way. He is known for the cleanness of his photography and the care of the detail that few photographers have. His great creative spirit makes him interesting and never insignificant. In the catalogue of the exhibition, a text of Laura Leonelli (Sole XXIV ore and Arte) and Guido Cecere.
