The conclusion of the conference was by Oliviero Toscani, one of the most important and well-known photographers in the world who revolutionized the traditional way of communication with some advertising campaigns that already belong to the history of photography. His work has been exhibited in international museums but, above all, as he said, in the squares and streets of cities, visible to millions of people who have admired, sometimes detested, but always discussed his images.
He has been, among his many activities, a longtime contributor to the French magazine ELLE and the Benetton brand and has published several books. It was a privilege to hear from his voice his thoughts about the way of understanding photography and creativity applied to every expression of work. "I would like to make a great campaign to promote peace, against war," was the message Toscani left to the audience, which applauded him at length.
The day ended with a gala dinner in the beautiful setting of the Henraux Foundation, a leader in marble quarrying and processing and a patron of the arts with the annual Henraux Prize, dedicated to sculptors under 40.
