A recent doctoral graduate from the University of Sydney and in co-tutelle from the University of Bologna, Emma’s project examined the media coverage of the 1968 Mostra della contestazione protests at the 34th Venice Art Biennale and the 29th Venice Film Festival focusing on the international impact of the news photography of Gianni Berengo Gardin and the national magazine columns of Pier Paolo Pasolini. Working in the Venice Biennale Archives, she analyzed the circulation of ideas and images about Venice’s 1968, particularly the role of celebrity protestors and the iconic impact of Piazza San Marco.
