Chan-Hyo Bae's portrait of Anne Boleyn from his series Existing in Costume (Punishment) is on show in True Fictions, at Palazzo Magnani, Reggio Emilia. This exhbition is the first retrospective held in Italy of staged photographs, a genre that has revolutionised the language of photography since the 1980's and its place in contemporary art.
With more than 120 works on display, the exhibition demonstrates how between the end of the 20th and beginning of the 21st century, photography was able to achieve the heights of imagination and invention which had previously been almost exclusively the province of cinema and painting.
