With the sponsorship and the economic support of the Naples City hall, in collaboration with the No- governmental voluntary association for the international solidarity, it will be open the photographic exhibition about Iraq, which deals with the infringement of human rights: "Bertelli, Esposito, Stallo's Iraq: three photographers to tell a country".

The idea of a photographic exhibition arises from the will of telling Iraq using pictures which trace out a story; the story of a country which has lived 13 years of embargo, 2 wars and many invasions.
The infringement of rights will be the leitmotif of a path shared by 3 photographers and a film director, who denounce the violence which has characterized the last war.
The exhibition will be open up to 2 June. You can visit it from Monday to Friday, from 9.00 am to 6.30 pm, and on Sunday from 9.00 am to 01.30 pm.
It has been organized into 3 areas dedicated to the photographers, with explanatory panels, authors' biographical information and an introduction to the work. Behind these panels there are 105 photos which represent a form of denounce, preparing the public for the exhibition.

The exhibition will be inaugurated on May 27 at 5.00 pm by the town councillor of the education, prof. Gioia Rispoli at the presence of the artists and the "un ponte per..." association's representatives.
