The aim of the project is to show how artistic and documentary images reflect the real impressions of trips and how travel is interpreted through art. For the first time, the works of XIX -XX century artists and modern photographs taken by the participants of the mobile competition are presented on a site Huawei Xmagge.
The historical part of the exhibition was the graphic works of famous Russian artists such as Boris Grigoryev, Mikhail Larionov, Alexander Kuprin, Lazar Lisitsky and others. These works were created on the basis of personal impressions of trips to Europe, Asia and South America, and became a reflection of the time when the travel and fixing of what he saw became a part of cultural life.
Late XIX’s photo pictures – Early XX centuries entered the Tretyakov Gallery collection in 2022. Italian journalist Roberto was given a gift to Scarphone. More than 300 photographs include Portraits of Egyptian and Middle East residents by Jean Giser and Hippolytus Arnu. There are views of Naples Georgio Zommer. These works are about the development of cultural tourism, and show how photographs replace the personal experience for those who cannot make a journey.
The modern part of the exhibition is photographs taken by Huawei Xmage participants. This project collects the best photos and videos taken by the company’s smartphones in the world.
The Huawei XMAGE competition has been held every year since 2017. This year, the reception was opened until September 30th. The best pictures will be presented in the digital part of the fair at the Tretyakov Gallery. You can join the official Huawei website in the community section.
