ninety-five images, unprecedented for the magazine and great visual and emotional impact, are in fact declined in four colors. Red, the color of earth, fire, communities, customs and traditions, women, children and men. It 's the color of the heart, blood, passion. Green: the green world in all its expressions, the color green as of today and tomorrow, the green of hope. And in 'color of nature, vegetation, existence itself.
White : the immaculate of the places affected by global warming, animals at risk for survival, innocence, purity. Blue: The color of the water and sky, seas and its "inhabitants" of joy and peace to exist.
Four colors to describe, suggestions and contrasts between the present and the future of the world, the strength and the weakness of nature and animals, humility, pride, sorrow and happiness of human beings. A fascinating photographic journey
c made on shots of the greatest photographers who work and collaborate with the magazine internationally and nationally.
"The exhibition comes from the desire to illustrate how the National Geographic photographers have managed, and able to interpret life on our planet, making the colors stand out," says Guglielmo Pepe, curator and writer for National Geographic Italy. "Through the colors we see how they live women, children, men in many countries near and far from us, what is the condition of existence for those who must fight against hunger, poverty, war, disease, how animals are able to withstand changes in the their habitats, what happens to the environment under the blows of climate change. But we also see the earth in its uniqueness, people in good times, the other species in their great diversity, nature and her extraordinary beauty. "
