VM21 - VENEZIA MANIFESTO

The Venezia Manifesto project was created to celebrate the value of man in Venice: the gestures, rituals and routines of Venice concerning the needs of the new inhabitant. It is a project aimed at promoting the uniqueness of the place, which intends to fall back on the present and restore the characteristics of Venetian style through a contemporary look.

This book is the result of an adventure in Venice: a photographic journey through the sestieri, gestures and people; a reflection on the Venetian way of life.

CAMPAIGN

22-23 May 2021, Venice

We ventured at a leisurely pace through the city in search of people and places that represent the identity of each sestiere. Following a spontaneous itinerary, we experienced the human dimension of Venetian space. We had the opportunity to get lost among the streets, the Calli and the Campi, to meet people who told us about their daily lives, their activities within the Venetian ecosystem.
