THE VENICE CRONORAMA: AN ATTEMPT AT THE VISUAL EXHAUSTION OF AN ICONIC PLACE
Max Farina spent a decade developing “The Venice Cronorama - Rivus Altus in 10 years (2013-2023), an artistic project inspired by writer Georges Perec’s Tentative d’épuisement d’un lieu parisien (1975).
Fixed at the same vantage point on the Rialto Bridge for more than a decade, Farina recorded the Grand Canal through over 60,000 images assembled into a single, time-compressed panorama that challenges Venice’s visual stereotypes.
