Lawrence Carroll - Photographs
18.05.2019 - 01.09.2019
Lawrence Carroll - Photographs is the sixteenth exhibition held in the ex-kindergarten of Bruzella, home of the Rolla Foundation.
Philip and Rosella Rolla have been collecting Carroll’s pictorial work for years and now present his first photographic project.
Lawrence Carroll is considered a leading exponent of contemporary art. His work, often at the boundary between painting and sculpture, is pervaded by a poetic sentiment and an autobiographical imprint that is reflected in his photographic work.
The project was born after a long journey through the United States of America to a new city and a new home.
