The Hunter College Art Galleries are pleased to present Peripheral Visions: Italian Photography in Context, 1950s-Present. This landmark exhibition, on view from February 3-April 28, 2012, showcases, for the first time in the United States, the works of major Italian photographers who have explored an alternative image of the country: a landscape bound to urban edges, focused on the discarded and the marginal, and deeply connected to a new identity which has developed side by side to the industrial and global transformation of Italian cities. The Hunter College Art Galleries are proud of bringing these works to the Hunter Community and the City of New York.

Peripheral Visions: Italian Photography in Context, 1950s-Present,
is accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue edited by Maria Antonella Pelizzari with writing by graduate students, and published by Charta Editions, Milan.
