Dynasty Marubi: Hundred years of Albanian studio photography
16 September – 27 November 2016
Dynasty Marubi shows extraordinary portraits from an extensive collection of 150.000 glass negatives, made in a photo studio in Albania.
Three generations of Marubi photographed a very diverse range of people, from the urban upper class to shepherds, the Ottoman emperor and King Zog, to criminals, famous actors and painters. Besides these portraits they also documented the most important events that took place in the tumultuous history of Albania. The exhibition is an introduction to the rich history of photography of this isolated European country that is often forgotten.
