PRESS RELEASE


April 2009

The Farmani Gallery hosts the first stateside solo show for Italian photographer Roberto Saletti with an opening reception.

Saletti's work was featured in the Best of Arles group exhibition at the Farmani Gallery in Los Angeles. He also exhibits in Paris and in his hometown of Rome, Italy.

Stretching the nature of the photographic image, Saletti uses a dark room process that pushes his original image and creates greater freedom and expressiveness in his photographic artwork.

Saletti commented, "I have learned to make optimal photos from a technical point of view; then I have realized I was being bored and I pushed to search for greater freedom."

Like giving movement to a memory, Saletti's process creates images that take flight from the physical time and place. The static subject is unveiled like clouds or smoke signals to the viewer.











"What I try to create is images without time, to give life to statues," Roberto Saletti.

The Farmani Gallery was established in 2003 and has offices in Los Angeles and New York. Its mission is to discover and cultivate emerging artists among the contemporary photography genre.

The Farmani Gallery is the brainchild of the Farmani Group, whom among its many charities, businesses and organizations has created The Lucie Awards, The Lucie Foundation, The International Photography Awards, Px3-Prix De La Photographie Paris and the International Design Awards.
