The scene of the crime
Donata Pizzi photographed around the world places where too many murders have taken place
An ordinary entrance hall: a grey-green elevator, neon lights, a black stairway, faded walls.
It is October 7 2006, Anna Politkovskaja, 48 years old, journalist of the Novaya Gazeta, is coming home with her shopping; a man follows her, slips into the elevator behind her, the door closes… It is from here, from Ulitsa Lesnaja, end of the line/epigraph of the freedom of information, that the photographic journey of Donata Pizzi begins to places where history, in a fragment of everyday life, has cancelled the life of people like us.
So as not to forget, the images of Donata Pizzi, with the support of the Robert F. Kennedy Foundation, become an exhibition at the Triennale in Milan: Intolerance zero.
