and in the wake of the '60s - a crucial decade, during which customs and socio-political ideals were criticized, challenged and permanently deleted - which is inscribed the style of the disturbing images / disquieting images in the exhibition, largely attributable the period from the 70s to today. They are images that come from all parts of the world, from Iraq to Texas, from Japan to Vietnam from Africa to Haiti, from Rwanda to Afghanistan, and cover the city as the small towns, as San Francisco, New York, Palermo, London, Provincetown, Emeryville or Seattle. They talk about subjects that are eroding the boundaries of imagination, because it close to a social universe that is latent and it is threatening violence on women, the distortion of eco-friendly, animal abuse, human obsessions, victims of war and family. Disquieting, worrying is a term ductile, easily circumscribed. Can you describe an event or object, or experience may be the same object or event. It can be a deeply personal response or evoked by the other: it is the work or the condition to be disturbing, or is the answer given by others to give this reading? The primary concern is a reaction, and at the same time, fueled by a shared suspicion and discomfort. It's both: it is shapeless, yet visceral, not an opinion, and however deeply felt, a calm interrupted, a deafening silence, something inescapable yet threatening, frightening, disgusting ...
In collaboration with the curators, the photographers have implemented, with varying degrees of narrative, a selection of images and projects that are - as witness or metaphorically - the concepts of community, gender, diversity, children, environment and conflict : the nature of 'human being as the human being and nature.

Through the selection of works on display, disturbing images / enucleates disquieting images of "ecosystems" ruthless and upset because it upset the order of things known, so as to create a new kind of reality. And at the same time appear as instances, events, experiences relived one o'clock as opposed to another, one twisted the other pictures that pose more questions rather than answers, which irritate the subjects depicted in deep decline - and the same word "concern" - in a personal way according to the sensitivity of the individual photographers.
