Talk

Letti in CAMERA presents “Hidden Collections”

Letti in CAMERA | Tuesday 13 January 2026, 6.30pm

On Tuesday, 13 January, at 6.30 pm, the Letti in CAMERA will host Giorgio Di Noto, a photographer who lives and works in Rome, where he teaches Photography, History and Printing Techniques, and Photography for Cultural Heritage.
We will immerse ourselves in the storerooms, restoration laboratory, and photographic archive of the National Roman Museum. These places are usually inaccessible to the public but appear in the pages of Hidden Collections (Quodlibet, 2025), a newly published book in which the author transforms photographs into a stratigraphic and poetic tool, capable of questioning not only the artefacts themselves but also the photographic images that document them.
During the talk, we will explore the affinities between photography and archaeology to understand how photography is not only a document but also a language, and how each image is an open process that continues to reopen over time, capable of transforming itself and generating other images.

 

With the participation of
Giorgio Di Noto, photographer
Alessandro Dandini de Sylva, editor of the book
Alessandro Coco, coordinator
Agnese Pergola, project manager
Giulia Ninotta, coordinator of the Letti in CAMERA
