The Museum of Rome in Trastevere has recently completed the acquisition of 200 photographs taken by Dino Ignani, a well-known photographer of the Roman scene, who began his career in the mid-seventies. Active mainly in social reportage and portraiture, he has created some serial projects, developed over the course of several years. With the Dark Portraits project, the Roman museum is exhibiting to the public a selection of shots focused mainly on the culture of the eighties, on the fashion and look of the time. Dino Ignani's gaze has produced a series of photographs dedicated to the young people who animated the clubs of the so-called Roman dark scene with posed portraits in black and white.
