Andrea Rosset's Photographic Paintings at Fusion Art Gallery in Turin

exhibition · 2026-05-05

Andrea Rosset, a photographer who avoids pressing the shutter, instead lets the camera fire automatically and then paints with a flashlight. His exhibition "Intra" at Fusion Art Gallery in Turin presents three photographic series: "Restrain," featuring portraits of humid souls; "Emme," a series of lightboxes; and "La Cifra," 37 angular anatomies projected in a second room transformed into a camera obscura. Rosset's process involves drawing subjects out of darkness using a torch as a brush, creating images that evolve through a dynamic exercise of understanding the subject's physiognomy. The show runs until May 7, 2016.
