Steve McCurry – Children | Fermo, 20th December – 4th May

At the Palazzo dei Priori in Fermo, Steve McCurry's photographs explore an emotional journey through childhood, alternating between war and poetry, suffering and joy, wonder and irony

 The images of Steve, coming from every corner of the world, capture young children in scenes of daily life, offering a tribute to this extraordinary period of life. An extraordinary gallery of portraits explores all the facets of childhood, united by a universal element: the gaze of innocence. The children captured by McCurry, though diverse in ethnicity, clothing, and traditions, share the same inexhaustible energy, joy for life, and the ability to play even in the most difficult contexts, often marked by poverty, conflict, or extreme environmental conditions. The visitor will be guided on an ideal journey alongside Steve McCurry, through countries such as India, Myanmar, Pakistan, Tibet, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Ethiopia, and Cuba.
