Umberto Favretto. The Colours of Dance

La photography It becomes a visual narrative and pure visual emotion through the lens of Umberto Favretto, historical photographer at the Teatro Grande in Brescia and estimated photojournalist for the *Giornale di Brescia*. The solo exhibition held in the spaces of the Cavallerizza brings together a fine selection of around thirty colour photographs carried out over the course of a whole decade, from 2010 at 2020. The exhibition celebrates the creative world of the dance contemporary and classical, freezing in time the dynamism of movement, the harmony of the bodies on stage and the the poetics of the athletic and artistic gesture.

Each photograph captures with extraordinary skill the the beauty of interpretation and the liveliness of the set designs, highlighting the complex the rich colours of the costumes on stage. The exhibition route takes visitors on an immersive journey behind the scenes and onto the stage, where the theatre lighting reflects the artist’s sensitivity in capturing the unique moment of the performance. The exhibition offers an unmissable opportunity to admire a fruitful dialogue between photographic art, dance art e live performance, set against the striking architectural backdrop of the exhibition centre at Brescia.
