To Have and Have Not
Luca Zanier
CORRIDORS OF POWER (2008-ongoing)
Economic, political and social power is concentrated in the hands of relatively few people, who operate in a world quite distant from everyday reality. The public rituals that accompany their decision making take place locations that should be symbolic of the power of the people. Luca Zanier recorded the halls, in all their magnificence, at moments when they were devoid of human activity.
