Starting this summer, Palermo, the Italian Capital of Culture 2018, will become the epicentre of the international art world…

…as it will host Manifesta 12, the European Nomadic Biennial of contemporary art. In this context, DRAGO is proud to present its latest photographic work, with a book launch and an event.

‘The Street Is Watching – Where Street Knowledge Meets Photography’ is an anthology of the most representative and iconic images of the street photography movement, and is the result of a five-year iconographic research conducted by Paulo von Vacano, Nicola Scavalli, Domitilla Sartogo with the contributions of Miss Rosen and Ethel Seno.

With the occasion of the book presentation, a selection of images by international photographers, curated by Paulo von Vacano, will be showcased from June 13th to September 20th, 2018, at Letizia Battaglia’s International Center of Photography of Palermo, Sicily.

Through a multimedia approach, which will involve unaired heretofore video interviews, projections, suspended images, the viewer will experience a total immersion in the streets of the world: from Sao Paulo to Los Angeles, from Beirut to London, from Sirte to Tokyo. ‘The Street is Watching – Where Street Knowledge Meets Photography’ is a 450-page volume with more than 400 images and contributions
from experts on street culture, such as Paulo von Vacano, Ethel Seno and Miss Rosen.
