Professor Forgacs will examine depictions of those “on the margins” of Italy, asking what lies behind those images and what happens when we look at them. The discussion will move from colonial photography in the 1930s to television pictures of irregular migrants today, from settlements of migrant Roma to street vendors and Chinese garment workers.
