The family safe opens at the Photographers Gallery & Arts Update

We also had an interview with Italian artist Eric Chevalier. We were talking about his solo exhibition, titled "The family safe" that opened on Wednesday the 3rd of February and closes on Saturday, the 27th of February at the Photographers Gallery in Shortmarket St opp On Broadway. His work is said to focus on issues of displacement, migration and alienation and particularly references the family album. He explained more about his influence. Eric lives and works in Sardinia. This exhibition forms part of an exchange program between Centro Luigi di Sarro in Rome and the Photographers Gallery in Cape Town. If you want more information about the exhibition, you can call the Photographers Gallery on (021) 422 2762 or go to www.photographersgalleryza.co.za
