Verzasca Foto Festival

This year, Verzasca Foto Festival explores encounters with others and with oneself through activities and exhibitions on projects from artist residencies, the winner of Nera di Verzasca, and an exhibition realised in collaboration with Swiss museums and organisations.

With Crossed Roads, Verzasca Foto Festival explores the power of images to represent joyful, revelatory, and difficult moments of encounter with ourselves, with each other, with our surroundings. Set against the backdrop of the natural beauty of the Verzasca Valley, the festival proposes a series of outdoor and indoor exhibitions, project presentations, portfolio reviews, and guided tours accompanied by the conviviality and warmth which have characterised eleven years of the Festival.
The festival opens on 30 August at Casa Azul, Gordola, with the opening of the exhibitions and the Night of Photography, coinciding with the launch of the Swiss Photomonth. At Casa Azul, the festival presents projects by Tiziana Amico, Mattia Balsamini, Charlie Cordero, Noa Epars, eden levi am, Thi My Lien Nguyen, and Andrei Pungovschi, in a group exhibition realised in collaboration with important Swiss photography museums, organisations, and institutions. In Lavertezzo, the festival meanders from the Verzasca river to rural mountain villages, presenting projects by the festival’s artists in residence Sara Aliaga Ticona and Anuja Dasgupta. They are accompanied by the 2024 winner of the Nera di Verzasca prize, Akshay Mahajan, who presents his project People of Clay in a disused 19th-century school. The Festival closes on September 1, with the presentations of Jess Holdengarde’s and Santiago Martinez’s research projects and a closing performance by Hal Borgnone.
