Catalogue of the exhibition by Swiss artist Jean
Odermatt, at the Galleria Gottardo
in Lugano. This is not the usual classical collection of photographs,
but rather a succession of interacting ideas that revolve around this
Swiss artistıs life project. They lead us to the physical point called
La Claustra, a foundation created at the very heart of the Saint Gotthard
massive. La Claustra is located in the
bunkers built by the Swiss Confederation during the first half of
last century. Today these underground passages, these damp and cold
spaces, have risen, thanks to the great work of the artist, to be
at the centre of discussion, debate, meeting and reflection, among
all those who are interested in the development of our contemporary
world. |

CAMERA gives us a photographic interpretation of
the Earth, portraying it as a living organism in its dynamic changeability
through time, atmospheric conditions and light.
