1 | MIA Photo Fair in Milan: If you are in Milan next week – from 29th Aprile to May 2nd – and you love photography I recommend you a vissit to MIA, the international photography and moving art fair.

“MIA Photo Fair, conceived in 2011 from an idea of Fabio Castelli, is based on a unique element of innovation that distinguishes MIA Photo Fair from traditional Italian and international art fairs scene: one stand for each artist and each artist having his/her own catalogue. Composed of solo show, MIA Photo Fair offered a unique approach to presenting a solo exhibition at each booth and location detail. In 2015, on the occasion of its 5th anniversary and the World Exposition EXPO 2015 in Milan, MIA Photo Fair is expanding its particular format in Group Show booth that have a specific curatorial project, provided that it is inspired by the themes of Expo 2015. MIA Photo Fair was created with the aim of highlighting the transverse role that photography has come to play between the languages of expression of the contemporary art system”.

Here are some of the photos you can see there.

Consider this pink as the interloper: the Pepto-Bismol shade – deeper than cherry blossom and more chemical than petrol station carnations – that can’t be defined as only sweet and saccharine. In fact, having looked closer at its use and purpose over the years, it seems something far more subversive is going on…”.
