The exhibition started from two photograph collections, both of great cultural and historical importance: the Hungarian Ernő Munkácsi collection containing images of Jewish Italy taken and gathered between 1927 and 1940, and the F.A.C.E. – Federazione delle Associazioni Culturali Ebraiche (Federation of Jewish Cultural Associations) photographic and documentary archive, created by the Federation in the 1920s and 1930s. “An Italian Journey” uses images, documents and correspondence to rethink the Italian Jewish heritage, part and parcel of the country’s national history, of its civil, symbolic and urban landscapes.
