    Miracoli a Milano. Carlo Orsi fotografo, Palazzo Morando, Milano
    Poster of the exhibition
    Palazzo Morando in Milan is hosting the exhibition Miracoli a Milano. Carlo Orsi fotografo, curated by Giangiacomo Schiavi and Giorgio Terruzzi. The exhibition is a tribute to Carlo Orsi's career, which began in post-war Italy in the city of Milan, where the photographer divided his time between the editorial office of "Corriere della Sera", where he tried his hand at photojournalism, and the cultural hub of Bar Jamaica in Brera, a meeting place for painters, writers, and poets not far from his birthplace. These two creative workshops helped to shape Orsi's existential and intellectual matrix, nourishing his research and defining the roots of his photographic practice.
