PPP – PROSPEKT PALESTINE PROJECT
Self, 2026

Prospekt Palestine Project is an initiative by Francesco Giusti (.giusti_xyz), Pietro Masturzo (), and Samuele Pellecchia (), photojournalists with Prospekt (), who travelled to the West Bank in 2025–2026 to document daily life and events, while also collecting, supporting, and sharing the work of photographers who have been active across the region for years.

These three fanzines emerge from that experience and mark the launch of a dedicated independent series. Self-published and accessible, they represent an act of cultural resistance: tools for expression and sharing, where the urgency to tell stories meets the freedom and possibility to do so. The zines can be purchased individually or as a complete set of three.

You can purchase a single zine or the full set, each available with or without a print, online at Micamera, or at the bookstore. Or join us on Friday, May 15 from 7pm at Nuovo Armenia ()for Micamera’s special bookstand dedicated to Palestine. We will also have copies of 'The Erasure of Palestine' (Museumsetc, 2025) () by Ahmad Al Bazz (.al.bazz), who will be speaking at 9pm.

See you at Nuovo Armenia on Friday (check out their program). We also recommend visiting the Activestills () exhibition at Fabbrica del Vapore () — final days, on view until May 17. The exhibition catalogue is also available at our store.

The zines were designed by Carlo Amico () and Silvana Carbone (.c), printed by Graphidea (), and realised in collaboration with Micamera.

On Tuesday, May 19 at 6.30 pm Alex Zoboli will be at Micamera to launch 'Shine On' (CESURA, 2026).

Book signing will follow! ✍️📖

In the aftermath of Brexit, Alex Zoboli travelled to the UK to document a country grappling with political division and social uncertainty. What began as a response to Brexit gradually opened into a broader look at everyday life across different communities, where conversations often circled around a shared sense of tiredness rather than firm political positions.

Through portraits, landscapes, and everyday moments, the project explores a country in transition, where the promises of the past intertwine with the uncertainties of the present.

Alex Zoboli photographed cities and towns marked by crisis, communities sustained by mutual solidarity, and places that continue to shine even when the light seems to be missing.
Shine On is a way of saying: don’t fade out. Don’t disappear. Keep your light on — and keep it alive for others, too.

Alex Zoboli (Guastalla, 1990) graduated from Istituto Italiano di Fotografia in 2014 and joined the Cesura collective officially in 2020. He worked on long term projects, mainly in Algeria and the UK.

PHOTOBOOK OF THE DAY 📚

Italian Story – Andrea Modica
L’Artiere, 2026

“The photographs in this book were made over the past four decades, primarily in Italy, entirely with an 8×10 view camera. I suspect I will continue this work for as long as I am taking pictures.
The title reflects the complexity of the Italian word storia, which holds meanings as diverse as history, story, situation, issue, fuss, hassle, tale, or lie. Depending on context, it may also refer to a love story, brief or ongoing. Italian Story is a broad narration: a record of events, a historical fiction.” – Andrea Modica, 2026

Italian Story is a deeply personal and poetic journey through Italy, spanning over forty years of photographic work by American photographer Andrea Modica.

Born into a third-generation Italian-American family, Modica began traveling to Italy as a young woman, gradually building a visual archive of the country’s landscapes, people, rituals, and moments of quiet intimacy. These photographs, taken across decades and regions, form a lyrical exploration of identity, memory, and belonging filtered through Modica’s singular, tactile photographic language.

PHOTOBOOK OF THE DAY 📚

Viscin – Yorgos Lanthimos
MACK, 2026

In his latest artist’s book, Yorgos Lanthimos further develops his inimitable visual language and his rapidly growing body of photographic work with a compelling collection of photographs taken around the sets and locations of his 2025 feature film Bugonia. Shot spontaneously between takes, Lanthimos’s photographs present a narrative untethered from the film and its conventions, once again exploiting the possibilities of the book format to explore new modes of storytelling. Moving between unconventional compositions, unsettling portraits, and evocative landscapes and reflections, Lanthimos weaves a story of mystery and illusion, death and renewal, permeated by the psychological intensity and unsettling atmosphere characteristic of his work.

The physical form of the publication evokes the unspooling of a reel of film, using an accordion or accordion fold to create a sculptural object. The resulting sequence unfolds a narrative of foreboding, violence, and rebirth, told through a progression of black-and-white and color images. The visual singularity of VISCIN sees Lanthimos drawing on these broad strands of his practice to create a new, distinctive, and enigmatic world.

Martedì 12 maggio alle 18.30 da Micamera Cristina Armeni, Elisabetta Cociani, Gianni Murzi e Rosapia Araneo con Diambra Mariani presenteranno Nóstos: il ritorno. 📆

Dopo l'incontro segue firmacopie ✍️📖

Tornare non è mai un gesto neutro, perché implica la necessità di misurare uno scarto: quello tra chi eravamo e non siamo più, tra i nostri ricordi e la forma del presente, tra ciò che cercavamo e ciò che è andato perduto. Il tema del ritorno è il filo che unisce i lavori di Cristina Armeni, Elisabetta Cociani, Gianni Murzi e Rosapia Araneo che, con l’accompagnamento di Diambra Mariani sono confluiti in una collana di fanzine intitolata Nóstos (che in greco antico significa ritorno a casa) Un solo tema, quattro persone, quattro progetti, quattro fanzine.

Micamera ospita Nóstos per una serata collettiva di presentazione. Le fanzine, disegnate da Alessandro Ciccarelli (Monkeyphoto) e pubblicate in un’edizione autoprodotta di sole 70 copie, saranno disponibili in libreria – dediche e autografi a fine presentazione!

Proietteremo le immagini e ascolteremo come è nato e come si è sviluppato questo lavoro collettivo.

Ciascuna fanzine costa 15€, la serie completa di 4 costa 40€. Poiché la tiratura è limitatissima, saranno disponibili solo per la serata. Qui sotto, quattro pagine scelte dalle quattro fanzine.

L’ingresso è libero, vi aspettiamo! 🌆

This Much is True – Albert Elm
Disko Bay, 2026

Disko Bay is exited to present This Much is True by Albert Elm following his acclaimed debut What Sort of Life is This. The book weaves together Elm’s energetic snapshots and dreamlike landscapes into an original body of work that employs a raw yet playful photographic language. Through this approach, Elm reflects on life as he experiences it—at home and abroad, at this particular moment in time, shaped by his age, circumstances, and surroundings.

The images move freely between faraway places and local experiences, icebergs, swimming pools and deserts. South Asian workers in Dubai, a marble quarry in Carrara, and an industrial pipe system outside Mumbai, alongside tourists photographing the Mona Lisa, graffiti on the separation barrier, and a masked police force in Copenhagen. These scenes are assembled into a fragmented yet coherent visual narrative that feels simultaneously global and deeply personal.

Like many of his generation, Elm (born 1990) navigates a constant storm of information, alternative ways of living, and endless temptations. The images emerge from a desire to understand the many facets of reality and a compulsion to push toward its edges. By refusing hierarchies between the extraordinary and the everyday, the book presents the world as a single, shifting landscape. Elm’s pseudo-documentary approach offers a selective record of lived experience: he captures what feels significant in the moment and preserves it for later reflection. Like a stamp collector filling an album, Elm gathers impressions until an image of a world he can understand — and feel at home in — begins to take shape.

The Erasure of Palestine – Ahmad Al-Bazz
MuseumsEtc, 2025

The Erasure of Palestine is the outcome of a three-year journey by award-winning photographer and filmmaker Ahmad Al-Bazz, who set out to document what remains of the hundreds of Palestinian villages and towns depopulated and destroyed during the creation and expansion of Israel from 1948 to the present.

Today, unmistakable traces of destroyed Palestinian communities haunt nearly every Israeli settlement, revealing not just a past catastrophe but an ongoing process – a continuing history of colonisation and removal. Combining visual evidence, field research and historical testimony, Al-Bazz shows that what began as a single act of ethnic cleansing has evolved into a sustained strategy of occupation and erasure.

The volume also confronts the current escalation in the Gaza Strip – 80% of whose population are refugees from depopulated towns and villages across Palestine, many of which are documented in his book

Book launch and signing on May 5 at Micamera. Both the author and the publisher will be present! 📆✍️📖

Through more than 80 haunting photographs and incisive accompanying essays, The Erasure of Palestine exposes the physical and psychological landscapes of disappearance, offering a stark counter-narrative to the dominant historical record.

This event is organized in collaboration with Prospekt Palestine Project in correspondance with the exhibition ACTIVESTILLS Documenting life, death and resistance in Palestine.

Atmosfere di guerra . Articoli e fotografie dal fronte (1944-45) – Lee Miller
Mimesis Edizioni, 2026

Nel 1944 l’Europa era un continente lacerato dalla guerra e oppresso dall’occupazione nazista. Durante la vasta offensiva contro le forze tedesche da parte degli Alleati, il lavoro di Lee Miller, al tempo corrispondente di guerra per “Vogue”, la distinse come fotografa e scrittrice di straordinaria abilità. Le sue parole combinano immediatezza, capacità di osservazione e profondo coinvolgimento personale, a completamento delle quali il volume contiene l’intera gamma delle straordinarie fotografie scattate tra Francia, Belgio, Germania, Lussemburgo e Austria. Le immagini raccontano il viaggio di Miller al seguito delle truppe americane attraverso città e paesaggi devastati dal conflitto, ma soprattutto ritraggono persone che resistono alla guerra: soldati, generali, medici, sfollati, prigionieri, feriti, antagonisti ed eroi. Nei suoi brillanti dispacci si percepiscono la cruda realtà del combattimento e l’incredulità, l’indignazione, nel testimoniare le vittime di Dachau. L’orrore della guerra è alleviato dallo spirito della Parigi post-liberazione, dove Miller registrò conversazioni memorabili, qui riportate, con Picasso, Cocteau, Éluard, Aragon e Colette.

“Questo libro è il resoconto della stessa Lee dell’avanzata degli Alleati nell’ovest dell’Europa, dall’ospedale da campo dietro Omaha Beach in Normandia nel luglio del 1944 all’incendio del bunker alpino di Adolf Hi**er in Baviera, sino alla fine della guerra in Europa l’8 maggio 1945.”
– David E. Scherman

Vi aspettiamo martedì 28 aprile alle 18.30 da Micamera per la presentazione del libro! 📖Ingresso libero.
