The Milan Triennale pays tribute to the photographer Giovanni Gastel, who passed away this year, with two exhibitions in parallel, one dedicated to portraits, and an in-depth look at one of his successful early works.

Triennale Milano pays tribute to photographer Giovanni Gastel (Milan, 1955 -2021) through two exhibitions, The people I like, in collaboration with MAXXI Museo nazionale delle arti del XXI secolo, and I gioielli della fantasia, in collaboration with Museo di Fotografia Contemporanea.

The people I like, curated by Uberto Frigerio with installation by Lissoni Associati, presents more than 200 portraits that bear witness to the immense variety of encounters that have characterized Gastel’s long career. A labyrinth of faces, poses, dreams of personalities from the world of culture, design, art, fashion, music, entertainment, and politics.

In parallel, the exhibition The Jewels of Fantasy, produced in collaboration with the Museum of Contemporary Photography, presents one of Giovanni Gastel’s internationally successful early works: 20 images part of a larger project commissioned from the author by Daniel Swarowsky Corporation in 1991 for the book of the same name and exhibition of 20th-century jewelry, both curated by Deanna Farneti Cera.
