There are many people who added to the realization of the project in some shape or form. I wish to
thank Anna-Kaisa Rastenberger and Nomaduma Masilela for their inspiration and guidance. The
artist mentors for their generosity of ideas: Françoise Poos, João Pina, Laia Abril, Natasha Caruana,
and Stratos Kalafatis. Claudia Löffelholz for her consistent and unwavering support and the
wonderful team at the Fondazione Modena Arti Visive made up of Alice Bergomi, Gessica Brugaletta, Irene Guzman,
Lorenzo Respi, Luca Monzani and others. Marco Comastri for the catalogue. And to Afonso Santos from TRUE. for the website. To Nuno Salgado and
Rebeca Bonjour of Procur.arte. Landskrona Foto, PhotoIreland and the Robert Capa Contemporary
Center all provided temporary homes in which to play with ideas and create this exhibition.
PARALLEL – EUROPEAN PHOTO BASED PLATFORM this adventure would not have been possible
without your support. To the artists George, Georgs, Negar, and Yuxin: your art generates the very
inspiration and impulse that propels us forward. Thank you.
