Dorothea Lange's Depression-Era Photography at Studio Trisorio, Naples

Studio Trisorio in Naples presents 'A visual Life', an exhibition of about thirty photographs by Dorothea Lange (Hoboken, 1895 – San Francisco, 1965), taken between 1930 and 1940. The images document the aftermath of the 1929 economic crisis, which devastated American shareholders, industrialists, and particularly the agricultural sector. Lange's work for the Farm Security Administration captures displaced laborers, migrant workers, and the homeless wandering through California in search of work. The exhibition runs until September 15, 2016, at Studio Trisorio, Via Riviera di Chiaia 215, Naples. The show is curated by Francesca Blandino, a specialist in contemporary art history from the University of Suor Orsola Benicasa in Naples, with a focus on socially engaged art practices.
