GRadispa, 4 Jun. (askanews) – From the film, passing through digital, to the invasion of smartphones that replace the cameras more and more often. In the Court of Aviano of Palazzo Torriani, in Gradisca, with the exhibition dedicated to photo-August News times, from newspapers to social networks Three great reporters, Luciano Del Castillo, Franco Lannino and Manuel Silvestri, tell how the trade and the company has changed in the last 40 years.
“Well, surely it changed a lot because before the images were very impactful, they were very strong, – says Del Castillo – And today strong images are not even selected, pixels are used, the pixel is used to hide parts of the image and in my opinion this is a kind of useless censorship, it is a hypocrisy. If we cover a black news or a war, wars unfortunately hurt and our voters must see what wars do, not what could imagine behind a pixel ».
Del Castillo and Lannino at the beginning of their career have documented the massacres of the mafia in Sicily.
“When we started working to Palermo, there was a parliamentary commission that had established that the mafia did not exist. Thanks to our hard, strong images, images of murders, images of people killed within their car, public opinion began to understand that perhaps there was something wrong and not only Italian public opinion, also public opinion from abroad, the journalists came and from there they manage to create an anti -mafia consciousness “.
Witnesses of a changing world, capable with a shot of telling a story that is difficult to say in wordsDel Castillo explains the repercussions of digital rivolition.
«Paradoxically, the smartphone gives the opportunity to tell everyone their events, but if you do not know how to handle information, if you don’t understand how to make information, you risk simply confusion and confuse people. I am not against smartphones, however, they must be used well ».
The exhibition organized in the context of Journalism Festivalscheduled from 10 to 15 June In Ronchi dei Legionari, it will remain open until until 31 August.
