The Phair Returns to Turin for Sixth Edition with Focus on Historical Archives
The Phair, a photography fair in Turin, will return for its sixth edition from May 9 to 11, 2025, at OGR – Officine Grandi Riparazioni. This year, it will showcase 50 galleries from countries like Italy, Belgium, Germany, the UK, and Switzerland. A key piece on display will be Mario Gabino's 'Torino, giostra Zeppelin in movimento' (1934) from the Archivio Fotografico dei Musei Civici. Notable participating galleries include Alberto Damian Gallery, A.MORE Gallery, and galleria Erica Ravenna, among others. Additionally, artist Eva Frapiccini will present 10 up-and-coming artists under 40.
